What INSERT GROUNDS CONTAINER
actually means.
The grounds container sits with the drip tray behind the service door, and a tab on the container tells the machine it is there. If the container was not reset after emptying, or the tab has cracked, the unit will not brew. Wolf also lists pucks not dropping into the container under this message.

What to do when INSERT GROUNDS CONTAINER 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 Wolf's own guidance for INSERT GROUNDS CONTAINER on its coffee machines. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Open the service door and pull the drip tray forward.
Set the grounds container squarely in place on the tray, then slide the whole assembly back in.
Check the tab on the container; if it is broken, the container needs replacing.
If the message stays with a sound container fitted, book a visit.

What not to do

Still showing INSERT GROUNDS CONTAINER?
