To read a Kenmore refrigerator model number, we match the full number exactly as it appears on the appliance’s rating label. For your Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator, the model number is 10658906802; use that exact number when ordering parts or checking specifications in the 10658906802 owner's manual.

Where to find the model number label

On most Kenmore refrigerators, the model and serial label is in one of these common spots:

• Inside the fresh food (refrigerator) compartment on a side wall
• Inside the freezer compartment on a side wall
• On the door frame area (visible when the door is open)
• Behind the lower crisper drawer area (on the liner wall)
• Behind the toe grille or kickplate area near the floor

How to “read” the number so you get the right parts

Kenmore model numbers are often long; accuracy matters more than decoding.

• Copy the entire model number, including all digits (example: 10658906802)
• Do not drop leading digits or “round” the number to a shorter version
• Use the model number first, then confirm the part number or part ID when shopping
• If the label is worn, take a clear photo and zoom in to verify each digit

A Kenmore refrigerator typically lasts 10 to 15 years. For a Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator like model 10658906802, regular maintenance (especially cleaning condenser coils and keeping door seals tight) is what most often determines whether it reaches the high end of that range.

Typical lifespan ranges (what we see most often)

• Average: 10 to 15 years
• Often achievable with good care: 15+ years
• Shortened lifespan is common when: coils are clogged with dust, doors do not seal, or cooling issues are ignored

What affects lifespan most	What to do	How often
Dirty condenser coils	Vacuum and brush coils and the grille area	Every 6 to 12 months
Door gasket leaks	Clean gasket, check for gaps, correct door alignment	Monthly quick check
Poor airflow inside	Do not block vents; avoid overpacking	Ongoing
Water/ice system strain	Replace the filter and fix slow fills promptly	Filter about every 6 months

Maintenance steps that extend life

We recommend focusing on these high-impact items first:

• Clean the condenser coil area and keep the base grille clear
• Confirm both doors close fully and the gaskets seal all the way around
• Keep freezer and fresh food vents unobstructed for proper airflow
• Replace the water filter on schedule and flush the system after changes
• Address unusual noises, warming temps, or heavy frost early (before the compressor runs nonstop)

For model-specific care and cleaning guidance, follow the maintenance section in the 10658906802 owner's manual.

Why it matters

A refrigerator that is running with restricted airflow or dirty coils typically runs longer cycles and hotter. That extra workload accelerates wear on key components like the compressor, evaporator fan, and electronic control.

The exact cubic-foot capacity for Kenmore side-by-side refrigerator model 10658906802 is listed in the specifications section of the 10658906802 owner's manual. If you need a quick planning number, most Kenmore 106-series side-by-side refrigerators are typically in the 21 to 26 cu. ft. total-capacity range.

How to find the exact capacity for model 10658906802

Use the model tag to confirm you are reading the right spec for your refrigerator, then match it to the spec section.

• Locate the model and serial label inside the fresh food compartment (side wall or ceiling)
• Confirm the model number reads 10658906802
• Open the specifications or product data section in the 10658906802 owner's manual
• Look for wording such as “total capacity,” “total volume,” or separate refrigerator/freezer capacities
• If your unit has an ice maker, note that installed accessories can reduce usable space even when rated capacity stays the same

Rated capacity vs. usable space

Rated cubic feet is a standardized volume measurement; usable space depends on shelves, bins, and installed options.

Term	What it means	What changes it
Total capacity (cu. ft.)	Rated interior volume for fresh food + freezer	Does not change with shelves or bins
Usable storage	Space you can practically load	Ice maker, door bins, shelf layout, drawers

Why it matters

Cubic-foot capacity helps you compare refrigerators, estimate food storage, and plan kitchen fit. For replacement decisions, pairing capacity with width (often 36 inches for many side-by-sides) gives a more accurate real-world comparison.
