How do fill with water? - Rowenta Commercial Garment Steamer - White

To open the Rowenta Superpress 050 iron, you should first unplug the iron from the power source for safety. Then, locate the water reservoir button on the top of the iron. The button is usually located near the back of the iron.
To open the reservoir, you need to push the button inward and turn it counter-clockwise. This will release the reservoir from the iron's body, allowing you to fill it with water.
After filling the reservoir with water, you can reattach it to the iron by aligning it with the body and turning the button clockwise until it clicks into place.
Remember to never fill the reservoir above the maximum fill line, as this can cause the iron to leak water or even cause damage to the iron.

Slowly fill the water tank with water. The stink bug should rise to the surface. Continue filling slowly and the flow of the water out of the fill hole should force the stink bug out! Remember as you're filling you must use something that will NOT block the fill hole or the water cannot drain and your "little friend" won't be able to be flushed out by the flow of the water.
I hope this helps!

No need to open iron! You just unplug the iron. Hold the iron upright. Using a clean cup, pour water into the "open" WATER FILL HOLES just above or in front of the Temp. Select Dial. Watch the water window on the left. When water level reaches MAX, you are filled. Plug in and use. Refill as needed. Ref. - Page 8 in the instruction pamphlet.

Fill it with a mix of 50% white vinegar and 50% water. Let it set for 30 minutes and steam it out for about 2 minutes. Unplug it and dump it. After it cools colpletely, fill it with water and steam it out. The rust is coming from your water supply, not the iron.

Usually there is a fill hole on the front of the iron. Place the iron in the upright position. Pour water directly into the hole and see the water level in the tank rise. Since I don't know which model you have, I can only give you generic instructions.

FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
FILLING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Place the unit on a stable surface.
2. While holding the water tank with one
hand, move the release lever toward the
power cord.
3. With the reservoir released, pull up on
the reservoir to remove it from the body of
the unit.
4. Turn the reservoir over, revealing the rubber
inlet cover.
5. Open the inlet cover and fill the tank
with everyday tap water (filtered water may
reduce hard water problems).

reservoir is secure.

CLEANING
Remove water container and clean the main unit with a damp
cloth. To maintain maximum performance, your steamer must
be descaled occasionally. The descaling intervals will depend
on the water quality and the frequency of use. The unit should
be descaled at least once a year or every 100 hours of use.
For descaling proceed as follows:
1. Unplug the unit and remove water container from main unit
by releasing container lock and pulling up.
2. Fill it with fresh water and shake vigorously to remove any
scale. Pour out the water and repeat if necessary.
3. Purchase a quality decalcifier agent and follow the instructions
of the manufacturer for the proper ratio of the mixture
to water and use.
4. After filling the water container turn it up and down to
descale.
5. Attach reservoir to unit, plug in and switch on.
6. Let the appliance run until the water container is almost
empty and do not steam any clothing with this mixture.
7. Unplug and detach the water container. Rinse it with fresh
water.
8. Fill water container with fresh water and repeat steps 5 and 6.
Note: If after descaling you believe that there is still buildup in
the boiler, repeat steps 1-8.

the button may have been sealed with an O-ring at one time. It may have fallen off inside the reservoir
