If the laptop has been in the sea, bathed or taken a shower, it is unlikely that anything will help it. However, if a little water gets on the keyboard, then follow this step-by-step instruction. And remember: you need to act quickly.<\/p>\n
Disconnect the charging cable from the mains and all other wires connected to the laptop.<\/p>\n
Turn the laptop upside down so that the water flows out. Simultaneously hold down the power button until the device’s screen turns off completely.<\/p>\n
Disconnect all external devices from the computer: flash drives, memory cards, USB modem<\/a> and battery.<\/p>\n Dry the laptop thoroughly without turning it back over. Pay special attention to the keyboard, ports and cooling holes.<\/p>\n If not just water<\/a>, but tea, coffee<\/a> or wine got into the device, then disassemble and clean it from the inside with paper towels or cotton swabs moistened with a small amount of alcohol. If you do not know how or do not want to lose the warranty – contact the service center.<\/p>\n Dry your laptop. Lay a fan on the floor, cover it with a cardboard or plastic box, and make large holes in its top and side walls. Cover the box with a towel and place the laptop on it with the keyboard facing down. Turn on the fan for two days to completely dry the device. But don’t leave it unattended for a long time.<\/p>\n After 48 hours, check the operation of the device and back up important data to other media.<\/p>\n Now hope for the best, but do not relax. Damage may not appear immediately, but after a few days or weeks. It all depends on your luck and the amount of spilled liquid.<\/p>\n
