A maintenance method of a fluid ejecting apparatus having a fluid ejection head. A cap member faces an ejection region of the ejection head and a portion thereof facing the ejection region covers a space that includes the ejection surface. When the space covered by the cap member is to be uncovered, the facing portion of the cap member is tilted with respect to the ejection head. Fluid is then ejected from a first portion of the ejection region toward a predetermined region of the facing portion. The ejection head is then moved, and a second portion of the ejection region behind the first portion is positioned so as to overlap the predetermined region in a plan view. Fluid is then ejected from the second portion toward the predetermined region, and the potential difference resulting from the ejection of the fluid from the ejection head is detected.
