Both the model and serial numbers can be found on a white label underneath the seat.

Confirm these details on the official CPSC noticeWhy it was recalled
The swing's carrying handle can fail to stay in place properly and drop or be pushed down, hitting a child in the head. Additionally, the 3-point seatbelt can fail to prevent a child from leaning forward or to either side, posing a risk that the child can fall forward and strike his/her head on the floor or the swing's frame.
Official remedy
Consumers who have a Travel Lite swing with a 3-point seatbelt (waist belt and crotch strap only) or a Travel Lite swing without a red handle release button, should stop using it immediately and contact Graco for a free repair kit.
