Keeping a Maytag Ice Maker and Freezer Running
- If dispensed ice isn't used regularly, empty and clean the ice bin and chute about every two weeks, wiping the chute and bin bottom with a warm damp cloth and drying them well. Source: Maytag Product Help - Not Dispensing Ice - Refrigerator
- Keep the freezer at about 0°F; Maytag says the ice maker stops producing above about 5°F, and a setting that is far too low can freeze water before it reaches the mold. Source: Maytag - Ice Maker Troubleshooting
