How to Properly Use Your blu e-cig Once you have charged your batteries and placed your first cartridge or blu Tank system (Premium100 only) on the blu electronic cigarette, you are ready to start using it. Simply place the cartridge/tank end in your mouth and inhale like a normal cigarette. This will initiate the atomizer, contained within the cartridge/tank, which will vaporize the liquid and allow you to inhale and exhale vapor. Each time you drag on your blu e-cig, the blue LED tip will light to indicate it is working properly. This is the only way your blu electronic cigarette is designed to be used and it should not be used in any other manner. 8
Nicotine blu cartridges and the tank systems come in various flavors and nicotine. When using cartridges that contain nicotine, you will inhale vapor that contains nicotine and it will be absorbed into your body.

This will not affect the operation of your e-cig, but it is recommended that you put it down and stop using for a short period of time to prevent overconsumption. If at any time you feel dizzy or nauseous, please stop using the product immediately and consult your doctor. Please keep all components away from children and pets.
