Spilled liquid on your laptop? Don't fear - follow these eight steps:
- If running on AC power, turn the power off at the mains. (If you have spilt liquid on the mains outlet also, then turn off the power at the fuse box).
- Unplug the AC adapter from the laptop. If you have spilt liquid on the AC adapter, then it is recommended that you replace it.
- Power down the laptop immediately.
- If running on the battery, then remove the battery.
- If you have spilled water on your laptop or keyboard, try and drain as much liquid out as possible.
- Mop up any excess liquid using paper towels. (Do not be tempted to use a hair dryer, as this can cause more problems).
- Do not try and power up the laptop again - this could cause more problems. Also, depending on what it is you spilled, just allowing it to dry isn't enough.
