What FILL BEAN CONTAINER
actually means.
On the F7BC24B1 the bean container is on top of the machine, reached when the unit glides out on its telescopic rails by the handles, which is the routine refill step Fulgor describes. The message appears when the grinder turns without beans reaching it.

What to do when FILL BEAN CONTAINER shows on the coffee machineKind of codeGrinder and beans
The grinder ran and too little came through, or it did not run at all: the hopper is empty, an oily or flavored bean is bridging over the burrs, a small stone or a clump has jammed them, or the burrs themselves are worn so the grind has turned coarse. Topping up with dry, plain beans and letting the machine try again clears most of it; a grinder that clicks, hums or stays silent with a full hopper needs its burrs and motor checked.

Clearing and renewing the burr grinder: jammed beans, a stone between the burrs, worn burrs, and the motor and gearbox that turn them.
Shows up asWhat a Coffee Machine Error Code or Warning Symbol Means
A coffee machine error code may show as a short string of letters and numbers, a flashing symbol for water, grounds or the brew unit, a short sentence on a text display, or a machine that stops with one light blinking.

The 2025 Matteo 24-inch F7MBC24S1 / F7MBC24MB1 lists the same tank and hopper, but its manual could not be read, so its wording is not confirmed here.
Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Fulgor Milano's own guidance for FILL BEAN CONTAINER on its coffee machines. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Let the machine finish or stop the drink in progress.
Top up the container with whole roasted espresso beans the way the manual shows for everyday refills, never with pre-ground, caramelized or flavored beans.
Make the drink again; if the message returns with a full hopper, book a visit, as beans may be bridging over the grinder or the grinder may not be turning.
Still there?
It usually turns into coffee machine grinder repair. Book with the code and the model number.
What not to do
The message does not mean the grinder is worn out. Oily, dark beans can stick together above the grinder and trigger it with beans still in view.

Three things make the booking useful: the message or number exactly as the display showed it, the full model number from the plate, and whether the machine still grinds and pours at all. Send those and the likely part can be looked up before the van leaves.
