Electric Shock and Heat: Do not expose Google Home or the power supply to water or extreme conditions. Take care when handling the power supply to avoid electric shock. To provide power to your Google Home, only use the power supply provided with your Google Home. Do not use the power supply provided with your Google Home to power any devices other than your Google Home. If you wish to plug your Google Home into a wall socket, you will need to install your Google Home near a wall socket that is easily accessible. Your Google Home may get hot to the touch; this is normal. Unplug your Google Home’s power supply and let it cool before handling.

Pacemakers and Other Implanted Devices: Google Home contains magnets and components that emit an electromagnetic field and could interfere with pacemakers or other electronic medical devices. Before using your Google Home, consult your physician or medical device manufacturer about the required minimum safe distance between Google Home and your medical device.

Device with Magnet: Avoid placing any media that contains magnets or is sensitive to magnetism, such as credit cards, bank cards, audio/video, tapes, or magnetic memory devices, near this product. Media containing information sensitive to magnets should be kept at least 5 cm (2 inches) away from the product. For example, if you carry your wallet or billfold containing magnetic cards next to this product, information stored on those cards could be destroyed.
Similarly, magnet-sensitive devices, such as a mechanical watch or measuring device, can be damaged if they come too close to this product.
