You can find the serial number on the outside of the box by locating a barcode sticker on the side of the box (usually). At the bottom of the barcode itself will be a number that starts with S01#######. The Number following the S01 will be the serial number on the back of the unit. This is also the bar code label that must be sent in to cliam the 5 free cds. To find a MANF DATE, look on top of the bax, there should be a label with a bar code and a date at the botton like: 11/12/99. This should be the date it was shipped from the warehouse.
