Warranty Information Tips

Order ID: You can find this in the order history of the account the purchase was made through.

Model Number: You can find this in your account's order history, as well as on the packaging or manual of the product. Some products come with the model number printed directly on them.
Model numbers help us identify the exact make and model of your product more accurately than a product name would.

It’s located on a sticker, tag, or printed directly on the product, but never on the packaging.
