How to Register AppleCare for mac

I have a new MacBook Air and a friend gave me AppleCare for it. I am having trouble finding where I go to activate the AppleCare for the MacBook? It lets me purchase it online but I see nowhere that I can just register the one that was given to me? Thanks!!

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.4

First make sure it isn't already registered:


Check Your Service and Support Coverage by clicking here --> https://checkcoverage.apple.com/


If it isn't, click on this link to read how to 'Update your proof of purchase' --> https://support.apple.com/HT202703

To update your information contact Apple Support by phone. Tell the advisor that you need help with your Apple Limited Warranty or AppleCare plan expiration date.

Here’s what you need when you call:

- Your AppleCare agreement number

- The device serial number

- Your sales receipt
