HD 1606 is a star in the constellation Andromeda. Although it is suspected of variability, none has been conclusively found, and its apparent magnitude has not been shown to vary from 5.88.[10] Located around 160 parsecs (520 ly) away, the star is a blue main-sequence star of spectral type B7V,[6] a massive star that is currently fusing its core hydrogen.
