How to find the model number, batch code and barcode

Model number

Usually on a label or sticker on the product itself (underside, back or frame), on the box, or in the manual. It may be called model, type, style or item number.

Batch or lot code

Printed or stamped on the packaging or product, often next to a date. On formula and baby food it is usually on the base or side of the tin or pack, near the best-before date.

Barcode

The 8 to 14 digits printed under the bars on the packaging. Type them into the check box on this page to compare them with the notices.

A notice names the product by some or all of these. If your brand matches but you cannot find the model, batch or barcode, treat it as a possible match and read the official notice or contact the maker.
