Quick overview
Your refrigerator’s Model Number identifies the design and features, while the Serial Number is unique to your specific unit. Both are needed for repairs, parts replacement, and warranty registration.
Common places to check
Look on the side walls, ceiling, or near the vegetable drawer — a white or silver label with the numbers is often there.
Check along the inner edge of the door frame (visible when the door is open).
On some models, the label is on the back panel or underneath near the front grille.
Check inside the freezer door or near the ice maker area for a printed label or sticker.
These documents will list your refrigerator’s model and serial number as printed by the manufacturer.

Troubleshooting if you can't find it
- Empty the fridge briefly and check the interior side walls or ceiling.
- Use a flashlight for dark or lower sections near the compressor.
- Unplug the unit before checking the back or underside.
- If still missing, check the purchase receipt or warranty card.
What to do with the numbers
- Register your appliance online for warranty and service support.
- Provide both numbers when ordering parts or booking repairs.
- Keep a photo or note of the label in your phone for quick access.
- Use the model number to download the correct user manual.
🧠 Tip: Refrigerator serial numbers are often 8–12 characters long and may include letters and numbers (e.g., HF12345678). Models often include the brand and design series (e.g., Samsung RT42M553, LG GR-B247SLUV).
🔒 Privacy & Safety Note
Do not post your serial number online — it’s unique to your unit and can be used to register warranty or verify ownership.
