What Empty grounds
actually means.
Jura tracks used portions to decide when the grounds container is full. Drinks stop until it is emptied. Because the count only resets when the container is emptied with the machine on, emptying it while the Jura is off is the usual reason the message returns.

What to do when Empty grounds shows on the coffee machineKind of codeGrounds and drip tray
The machine thinks the grounds container is full or missing, or the drip tray is full or out of place, and it will not brew until that changes. Most machines count the pucks rather than weigh them, so the message returns if the container is emptied while the power is off or put back too quickly. When it stays after a proper emptying, the tray contacts, the sensor or the counter on the board is checked at the visit.
Usually leads toCoffee machine diagnostic visit
A visit that brews and froths with you watching, reads the machine's own counters, then tests grinder, brew unit, pump and heater until one part is named.
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 Jura's own guidance for Empty grounds on its coffee machines. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
With the machine switched on, pull out the drip tray and empty the coffee grounds container.
Rinse both with warm water, then slide them back in fully.
If the message comes back straight away, repeat with the machine on; if it persists, book a visit.
Still there?
It usually turns into coffee machine diagnostic visit. Book with the code and the model number.
What not to do
This message does not mean the machine is clogged inside. Dry grounds behind the container come from beans that make more grounds than average, not from a full container.

Still showing Empty grounds?
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.
