What FILL TANK!
actually means.
JennAir's coffee system needs no plumbing; it draws from a reservoir filled by hand. A float in the tank tells the machine the water level, so a tank that is dirty inside can keep the float from moving and bring up FILL TANK! even when water is in it. The same text appears during descaling when the rinse water is due.

What to do when FILL TANK! shows on the coffee machineKind of codeWater and tank
The machine asked for water and did not get what it expected: the tank is empty, sits off its seat or has a float the sensor cannot see, air is trapped in the line, or the flowmeter counted too little water passing in the time allowed. On a plumbed unit the same message can mean a closed shutoff, a kinked supply hose or a clogged inlet valve. Reseating a full tank and running a rinse clears the simple cases; a pump that hums with nothing moving is a visit.

Testing and replacing the pump that drives water through the coffee, with the flowmeter that counts each cup and the valves beside it.
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.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from JennAir's own guidance for FILL TANK! on its coffee machines. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Remove the tank, fill it with fresh water and push it in as far as it goes.
If it was already full, wash the tank with a damp cloth and mild detergent, rinse it well and refit it so the float moves freely.
During a descale, refill with clean water when RINSING FILL TANK! appears and continue.
If a clean, full tank is still not recognized, book a visit.

What not to do
FILL TANK! is not a sign of a water line problem, since the JennAir unit has no water line. It also differs from the GROUND TOO FINE message that can appear with it when the tank was lifted mid-brew.

Still showing FILL TANK!?
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.
