Dropped in the water the phone can still be saved. And here's how!

The expert gives a sequence of six steps!

We all know that smartphone and liquid — are incompatible. And yet we regularly bring them a beer, drop them in swimming pools and toilets, talking in the rain. It's all very unpleasant, but it will not go away!

There is good news! If your phone took a dip in the water, it doesn't mean the end of him.





Of course, no guarantee you no one can give, but expert in electronics Jessica Naziri told the newspaper USA Today, what steps will maximize the chances of rescue apparatus.

Here is detailed instruction what to do in such situations.

1. Turn it off.Phone need to immediately switch off and resist the temptation to turn it on and watch: "what if it works?". Most likely, not working. Or will stop working forever, as soon as I try to include.

Actually, in this case seconds. The life of your phone may depend on literally seconds-another, during which it was included.

2. Take out the SIM card and battery (if you can).All that can be removed from the phone must be removed. If you have an iPhone, you can skip this step.

By the way, do not try to dry the SIM card. She will survive.

3. Try to suck from it the liquid.Not the mouth, of course. Try a vacuum cleaner. Or wrap the phone with a towel or, even better, dry straw. Try to eject from the phone body all the liquid I can.Focus on the holes for headphones and charger.

IMPORTANT: do not shake the phone to pour the water from it. Use a dry towel.

4. Dry the phone.Now it is important to take care of humidity inside the device. The best way to "pull" it from her to fill the gadget with a bowl of uncooked rice.

If you do not eat rice, put the phone in a plastic or silicone bag and place in the sun. The package will collect moisture on itself. Disadvantage of this method is that the phone will heat up. And this is not good.

But the cool method: place the phone right in front of the air conditioner. The air comes out dry and cold. So the water will evaporate faster, but you will not harm your gadget with excessive temperatures.

5. Turn it on, but much later than you want!Let it dried at least a day. If you are so impatient, you can try to switch the phone on a day after he fell into the water.

The main condition: the device must be absolutely dry! Push the phone on the edges: if somewhere else emerges the moisture, put it back in the bowl with rice!

6. If the phone is not included, you will have to dry it for a few days.Now explain why this is necessary.If you did everything correctly, but the phone still won't start, he's probably — "all". As you know, the warranty cases on the "drowned" do not apply.

Therefore, you are critically important to "cover their tracks". Manufacturers use "indicators liquid contact" — LCI. It's a little white sticker that turns red if the surface where it is preserved microdroplets of water. Their eyes do not normally see, but the sticker is.

Depending on the indications of the sticker is decided, will repair you phone under warranty or not. So dry the phone thorough. Let him lie before conditioning week! published
