No, never use conventional cigarettes with IQOS.

IQOS is designed exclusively for use with TEREA tobacco sticks. IQOS tobacco heaters cannot stably heat a normal cigarette to the optimal temperature, and the tobacco in a conventional cigarette is not prepared in such a way that it can be heated.

Your IQOS ILUMA works best between 0 - 40℃, and TEREA tobacco sticks taste best when you keep them at room temperature. Here are a few storage tips: 
 
Keep your device away from water, direct sunlight and heat.
Don’t leave your device in a hot place like inside a car because the lithium-ion battery and electric circuit board could be damaged, or significantly deteriorated.
To ensure the best taste and to get the most from your device, we also recommend you avoid exposing your IQOS ILUMA and TEREA sticks to low temperatures for a long period of time.
Store IQOS ILUMA or IQOS ILUMA PRIME and TEREA sticks in a clean, dry, cool place.
Do not expose IQOS ILUMA or IQOS ILUMA PRIME and TEREA sticks to high humidity conditions or direct sunlight.
Do not use TEREA sticks that have been exposed to excessive heat or moisture.
 
Additional information:
In cold outdoor conditions, the device may be able to start if it’s kept warm (e.g.in your coat pocket). Nevertheless, while using the holder, the cold outdoor temperature may lead to:
 
a.    Lower performance of the aerosol
b.    Not enough energy to match the (per tobacco stick) designed usage duration (up to 6’ or 14 puffs whichever comes first).
