water level indicator? How do you know when it is time to refill the water?

If you want this added feature Rowenta feels it should cost you an extra $100. So.... measure the water, add it, let it heat up, and iron untill you feel less pressure escaping when you hit the steam button. I usually just empty it out into my measuring cup to make sure, and then refill it again when it cools off. You learn to "know" when it's running out of steam. If you finish ironing before running out of steam, unplug, let it cool down then empty for the next time. That way you know you have about an hour of ironing time every time you start. ( I keep mine set to the 1/2 way mark, and it lasts me about an hour each time.) I keep my 32 ounce measuring cup with the funnel next to my iron so it's always ready. Hope this helps. Happy steaming!

You should be able to see the water level both in the filter and in the tank around the filter. If the water level is too low the filter will start making crazy sounds to let you know you need to raise the water level. You should not have to actually raise the "cartridge" , just the water level.

I haven't experienced this. Is the water level getting low or have you noticed that the "Steam Ready" indicator light is off (meaning that you have used up the available steam and must wait for the unit to build up steam) ? Other than that, I can't think of a reason for the situation you describe.

The indicator stick has a sponge on the bottom and it will expand when saturated. If the little leaves on the indicator stick are even with the top of the top of the hole, you need to water. If the leaves extend above the opening, you are good. Hope this helps.

Hold level without shaking. Wait for the 15 seconds, that will be the color to read. I have used these all summer this year and they are very accurate.

My husband said that is an indicator of low water pressure and that if you have a two speed pump, you should turn it on high.

Yes, the level is red and should be visible when there is water in the unit. When the level gets down to the MIN mark it isn't as obvious but at that point, a signal goes off to let you know it is low.

No there is no physical or visual indicator to let you know when it needs changing. I have had mine a few years now and I am just assuming that when the time comes for it to need replaced I will start seeing sediment in the water. I will replace it at that time.

The system has a floating sensor that will trig when water level drop about 1/4 if an inch .The only problem with this ATO it's that make sure that float sensor it's free of algae, salt or any calcium deposit .

The display screen will show the water level after each brew and will also display whenever the water level is getting to low to brew

Mine does have a tiny amount of water remaining but not nearly as much as you have. I don't know if that mean there is something wrong. Perhaps try it running on the intermittent timer compare it to running it continuous.

It does not have an indicator window or any other way to know how much is left. I just use it until it doesn't spray well, and then fill it up.

The steam stays on until you've run out of water. I haven't timed it but it is a reasonable amount of time. When you refill it is only a matter of seconds before you can continue.

Yes, get the "sight glass" accessory. It's a glass tube on the outside of the chamber that displays the water level inside the chamber.

Hey Steve, there should only be running water sound when the tank is filling after you used some of the stored water. Unless you drained the tank to fill up a big big pot, it should not take that long to refill. You might want to check to see if the psi or pressure of the tank is where it should be. You are not filling the entire tank, you are filling a portion with an air balloon providing the pressure to push stored water out to the spigot on command. This is a closed system so water cannot be running forever. If so, the sound is either from something else or you have a major leak below the sink.

The water level is maintained by a float, so refilling is almost instantaneous. No need to worry about running low on water.
