- Clean condenser: Vacuum and brush the condenser coil to improve heat rejection.
- Check room temperature: Ensure the unit is in a room within Maytag's specified temperature range.
- Descale system: Run a full cleaning cycle with ice machine cleaner to remove scale from the evaporator and water paths.
