PDF download Download Article

Whether your ice maker is countertop, under-counter, upright, or built into your refrigerator, you'll usually need its model number to get support, service, or replacement parts. On most countertop and standalone ice makers, the model number is on a sticker somewhere on the unit's exterior—typically on the back or top of the model. If your ice maker is in your freezer, you'll just need the refrigerator's model number, which is easy to find. This wikiHow article will show you simple ways to find your ice maker's model number.

Things You Should Know

  • The model number for most countertop and standalone ice makers is typically on the rear panel or inside the ice bin.
  • On other countertop nugget ice makers, you'll find a sticker with both the serial and model numbers on the top of the unit.
  • If your ice maker is inside a refrigerator, you'll need the refrigerator's model number—usually on the inside wall or behind a crisper drawer.

    • Inside the refrigerator or freezer door.
    • On the inside wall of the refrigerator or freezer.
    • On the wall behind the crisper drawer(s) inside the refrigerator.
    • Behind the kickplate, which is the bar that extends over the bottom of the refrigerator.
