    If you already have an IQOS 3 device and would like to use your IQOS 3 DUO Holder with the IQOS 3 Pocket Charger, you might need to upgrade your firmware.

    Check whether your current IQOS 3 device needs an upgrade by fully charging your Holder and inserting it into the Pocket Charger, then pressing the button. If the Holder status light blinks once, you’ll need to upgrade your firmware – you can do this for free in an IQOS Store. If the light blinks twice, you’re good to go.
    Once you’ve upgraded the firmware, you’ll be able to charge and use your IQOS 3 DUO Holder with your IQOS 3 Pocket Charger. You can upgrade your firmware either via the official IQOS App, in the Philip Morris Hungary Ltd. HQ office (1085 Budapest, Kálvin tér 12.), or at IQOS expert points for free of charge. More details about the official IQOS App you can find HERE.

    Keep the Holder in your hands and insert the HEETS tobbacco stick till the silver line, face down with the tobacco side. If at any time you find that you cannot insert the tobacco stick till the silver line, the device should be cleaned, most likely the CAP.
    If the tobacco inserted properly, you can switch on the device. Push the button at the side for 2 seconds till having the vibration and the light starts to blink. While the light is blinking the heating blade starts to heat the tobbacco stick. If the light stands still, the device is ready for use. While the device is operating, do not push the button again because it switches off the device.
    You can experience the real tobacco taste for 6 minutes or 14 puffs. It depends on which comes first. You can use DUO device with 2 tobacco sticks in a row without charging the Holder.
