To calculate a product's warranty period, start by reviewing the purchase documentation or the manufacturer's website for warranty terms. Typically, the warranty period begins on the purchase date. Add the duration of the warranty (e.g., 1 year, 2 years) to this date to find the warranty expiration. For extended warranties purchased separately, the period usually starts after the manufacturer's warranty ends. Always keep your purchase receipts or documentation as proof of purchase date.
