The lingering smell most probably comes from the non-regular or non-thorough cleaning. We recommend cleaning the device on a regular basis after using 1 pack of tobacco sticks.

If you continue to use the device without removing the debris or remnants, the device can heat up the remnants, which can produce the lingering smell [link to How to clean lil SOLID Ez?
No. Cigarettes cannot be used with lil SOLID Ez device because of different manufacturing design. Special tobacco sticks have been specifically designed for use with lil SOLID Ez device.
lil SOLID Ez has been designed to have an average stick duration similar to cigarettes. However, there is still a difference because lil SOLID Ez is a heated tobacco product.  The way you puff impacts how long your tobacco stick will last.
What you experience with lil SOLID Ez is the taste of a real tobacco, which is heated, but not burned. Tobacco sticks are made from a specially selected blend of tobacco in order to provide tobacco taste satisfaction that replicates as much as possible what adult smokers expect.
By heating the tobacco, instead of burning it, the taste released is less harsh than what you are used to with a cigarette. That’s why the taste is different.
If you experience any difficulties inserting tobacco sticks, please, check the following:
1. Check if you are using the tobacco stick and not any other product
2. Check if  there are any remnants inside the stick insertion part. Remove the remnants by pulling the cap out of the device, install the cap back and try to insert the stick again.
3. Don’t forget to twist the tobacco stick more than 3 times in one direction before pulling the stick out of the device. This way you avoid remnants in the stick insertion part.
4. Check if you insert the stick in the right direction. Insert the tobacco stick with the tobacco part facing down. If it is inserted upside down, you may experience difficulties inserting it. 
5. If a stick gets broken in the device, please, remove the broken stick:
• Pull out the cap and the broken stick should come with it. Then, gently tap the cap to remove the broken part.
• If this does not happen, with caution, try using a toothpick to remove the part of the stick that remains in the device.
• do not use any sharp tools to remove the broken stick as you might damage the device. 
• do not insert any metal into your device.
• if you are experiencing any trouble, please go to your nearest IQOS store so that one of our agents can assist you. 
6.Check if  the tobacco sticks were exposed to a humidity or high temperature. They need to be kept in a dry place to prevent the tobacco mix from sticking together. Try a new stick from the pack that was not exposed to humidity.
7.If none of the above solutions helps, contact us at Customer Support Center 0800 2 12 12 or visit us at the nearest IQOS zone.
If you have not used the device for a long period of time, please ensure there is no visible damage present and then, try to charge it fully before attempting to turn it on.

To conserve battery life, the device will return to sleep mode:
1. if it is not charged for 24 hours when the Status LED light is red
2. if it is not used for 7 days when the Status LED light is orange, ice blue, or blue

Please note, when you start charging the battery after a long period of inactivity, i.e. when your battery has been completely depleted, the charging lights may not appear right away. This is a normal process.

If the charging does not happen, please, contact our Customer Support via:
o phone: 0800 2 12 12
