In summer, one of the most common accidents with any electronic device is that we drop it somewhere with water. In Tabletzona we already offered you a complete analysis of the best “waterproof” cases for iPad but we are going to give you a series of tips to act quickly if your tablet ends up in the liquid element.
1.- You may be interested in making insurance for your tablet. For a little money you can rest easy and take the tablet directly, or even have it replaced, in the event of an accident.
2.- Let's get on and in the event that the tablet has ended up in the water, take it out as soon as possible. As we have been able to read, after 20 seconds of immersion the damage is, almost certainly, irreparable.
3.- You must turn it off as soon as possible. You may want to save some internal documents but if you have them synced with iTunes you can transfer them again. This step is very important because the longer the tablet is on, the more danger there is of a short circuit.
4.- Place it in a position where the water drains well, this is usually on one of the corners, and wipe it with a towel or absorbent cloth. It is very important that you do not try to dry it with a hairdryer, put it in the sun or use any heat source. The circuits are very delicate and you can cause some irreparable damage.
5.- Now comes the key moment, find a container large enough, fill it with rice and put the tablet inside. Arm yourself with patience since it should be there, at least, about 7 days so that all the moisture is absorbed.
If you have the typical "Silica Gel" bags on hand that come with many products, you can open them and also add their content to the rice. In fact, the function of these is to avoid humidity in the storage of products of all kinds.
6.- Once the week is strictly submerged in the rice, take out the tablet and turn it on. The key is to see that there is no type of droplet, moisture or the like on the screen. In the event that they exist WITHOUT TURNING IT ON, leave the tablet again for a couple of days in the rice.
If you acted in time it is possible that you have saved the situation, however, we cannot guarantee that some will have to end up taking the device to technical service and this repair is not covered by the guarantee, hence we remind you of the first step, the possibility of Have insurance for your tablet beforehand.
The same thing has happened to me several times with my mobile, I have followed the steps and without problem, really. The rice thing works surprisingly enough.
really it doesn't work
It can be done with an ONN tablet, water got inside me ... and I don't know what to do, would you help me
What I do first is immerse it in distilled water, so that it dissolves the calcium or salts that may be in the running water, the distilled water is not conductive of electricity, then with rice or a warm and dry place for a few days.
