Remove the water tank cover & peek in there. If it's cruddy looking, it wouldn't hurt to wash the inside of the tank, using Dawn- or whatever- & rinse thoroughly.

I sanitize with chlorine bleach. Off the top of my head I use a quarter cup to a tank full of water & drive around a couple days for soak & slosh. Then, I empty the tank using the water pump to clear out the water lines.

Rinse well. If you want to, you can do the baking soda thing again, but I don't bother. Probably a good idea to do sanitization annually.
