Finding the model number on your refrigerator
Most refrigerators keep the model tag inside the fresh food section, often partly hidden by shelves or drawers. Open the doors and check the four marked spots, top to bottom

Where fridge tags are placed
Top-freezer, side-by-side and French door models can differ.
- 1 High on a side wall inside the fresh food compartment.
- 2 Low on an inside wall, beside or behind the crisper drawers.
- 3 On the inner edge or inside panel of the refrigerator door.
- 4 Behind the kickplate grille at floor level — unclip it to look.

Before you start
You don't need to unplug the fridge to read an interior tag. Remove whatever blocks the walls, and work in short intervals so the food stays cold.
- Slide a crisper drawer out to see the lower wall clearly.
- Most kickplates snap off by pulling the bottom edge toward you.
- Water filter and ice maker part numbers are not the refrigerator model number.
FAQ
My shelves cover the label. Do I have to remove them?
Sliding out one shelf or drawer is usually enough; take an angled photo if you can't see the tag straight on.
Is the number on the ice maker the fridge model?
No. The ice maker has its own tag — use the refrigerator's main label for parts searches.
