2018 Ram ProMaster City air filter

Window Fogging
Vehicle windows tend to fog on the inside of
the glass in mild, rainy and/or humid weather.
Windows may frost on the inside of the glass
in very cold weather. To clear the windows,
select Defrost or Mix mode and increase the
front blower speed. Do not use the Recircu-
lation mode without A/C for long periods, as
fogging may occur.
Outside Air Intake
Make sure the air intake, located directly in
front of the windshield, is free of obstructions
such as leaves. Leaves collected in the air
intake may reduce airflow, can cause odor,
and if they enter the plenum they could plug
the water drains. In Winter months make sure
the air intake is clear of ice, slush and snow.
A/C Air Filter
The climate control system filters outside air
containing dust, pollen and some odors.
Strong odors cannot be totally filtered out.
Refer to “Dealer Service” in “Servicing and
Maintenance” in your Owner’s Manual on
www.mopar.com/en-us/care/owners-manual.html
(U.S. Residents) or www.owners.mopar.ca
(Canadian Residents) for filter replacement
instructions.
