Areas to Avoid Placing Your Amazon Echo:
Near Your Toilet: Avoid placing the Echo near the toilet due to potential germ exposure. Instead, mount it on a wall or place it on a counter as far away from the toilet as possible.
Near a Sink: Keep the Echo away from sinks and water sources to prevent damage from water spray or spills. Place it on a different counter or in a corner away from potential water hazards.
Near Windows: Do not place the Echo near windows, as it could potentially allow unauthorized access to your smart home devices.
Under Your TV: Avoid placing the Echo under your TV, as commercials or similar voice commands may inadvertently activate it, interrupting your viewing experience and potentially recording private conversations.
In Front of a Space Heater: Never place the Echo near any heat sources, such as space heaters or radiators, as this could cause a fire or damage the device.
Recommended Placement Locations:
- In the corner of your living room (away from windows)
- On your bedside table
- On the edge of your kitchen counter (far from the sink)
- On a mantle or shelf
- Mounted on a wall that's not facing a window
