Reserved slots only work while your server has no Server Password, so leave that setting empty. Players can only enter one password, and the reserved slot password doesn't get them past a server password.
Reserved slots come out of your max players. With Max Players at 16 and 2 reserved slots, 14 slots are open to the public.
Joining A Reserved Slot
Before you connect, open the console with the ~ key and type /set password "yourpassword" using your reserved slot password. Then connect to your server as usual and the game puts you in a reserved slot.
