  • act fast even if it means retrieving it from the toilet!
  • remove the battery immediately without even hesitating to turn off the power.
  • dry off the cell phone with an absorbent towel as best as you can.
  • If that isn’t pure such as a beverage or in salt water, rinse the phone off with fresh water once you have removed the battery.
  • If you drop your cell phone in liquid that isn’t pure water, you may want to try giving it an alcohol bath.
  • leave it in a warm dry area or near an air conditioner for three days before you attempt to replace the battery and turn it on.
