Hi Patty! Welcome to the board! You're doing it just right, btw! :)
The serial number on your FW should be on the bottom of the machine, and should have two letters, followed by a series of numbers. On machines made in the US, the serial numbers all start with "A". On machines made in Kilbowie, Scotland, the serial numbers all start with the letter "E".
Hope this helps!
