When you are looking for your model number you need to find the serial tag
on your appliance as this is the best way to ensure you have the full and
correct model number. Names like Series 100, 200, Profile, Neptune, Gold and
XL44 may appear to be the model at first glance, but finding the serial tag
will give you the correct model number for finding parts with.
Here is an example of what your appliance serial tag may look like
Various manufacturers serial tags will both look different, and be found
in different places. When you find your serial tag, remember to copy down all
the information included as some appliance brands may require the extra
information supplied on the
tag, to give you the correct information or part you require.
Common information found on a tag may include:
Series numbers, i.e. Series 04
B/M numbers, i.e. B/M# AH59A
P numbers or Manufacture numbers
Some Kenmore model numbers may use a space instead of a hyphen i.e. 110 3456789
would be 110-3456789
Do not try and use energy guide stickers or sales receipts to find your model
number as these generally only have a shortened version of the number on them.
Care and usage manuals are also not a good way to find your model number
as they are usually produced to cover multiple model types.
