Common rating-plate locations
Look inside the fresh-food compartment, around the upper side walls, behind drawers, or on a cabinet label.
What to write down
- Model number: identifies the product family and configuration.
- Serial number: may identify production date or factory batch.
- Product / PNC / service number: some brands use an additional identifier for exact parts and documentation.
Do not dismantle a built-in appliance, pull a heavy appliance out alone, or reach near live electrical parts just to read a label. Check purchase paperwork, registration records, or the manufacturer’s support tools first.
