We will therefore explain to you with this article what you should do in the event of water infiltration in your iPhone 12 Pro.
The first steps to take if there is contact with a liquid to save an iPhone 12 Pro that has taken on water
Several gestures are to be observed when your iPhone 12 Pro has been immersed in a liquid. Be careful, not everything you will be able to find on the web is necessarily correct, and you risk further damaging your device if you do not adopt the right actions to practice in an emergency.
iPhone 12 Pro submerged: remove accessories
Start by uninstalling all the accessories from your iPhone 12 Pro if it has just fallen into liquid. So remove earphones, safety shells etc. Indeed, the accessories could trap water in the ports or on the surface of your iPhone 12 Pro.
If your iPhone 12 Pro ever gets wet, start by wrapping it in a cloth
Get a clean, dry, lint-free towel. Remove excess liquid from your iPhone 12 Pro by tapping gently on the wet areas. Then wrap your iPhone 12 Pro in this cloth for several minutes.
Dry your laptop
You can then move on to the drying phase of your iPhone 12 Pro. To do this, do not use a hair dryer or any other device that blows hot air. Indeed, exposing your iPhone 12 Pro to an excessive heat source or any other heat treatment may damage the internal components of your laptop, irreversibly. Instead, use a fan to blow dry air onto your iPhone 12 Pro. Do not charge your laptop when it is still wet. You can charge it again once completely dry.
Water infiltration of your iPhone 12 Pro: the speakers are muffled
When your iPhone 12 Pro comes into contact with liquid, the microphone or speakers may be damaged. If so, the ringtone will not come out well, like muffled. In this situation, position the speakers of your iPhone 12 Pro downwards so that the liquid drains. Then dry your iPhone 12 Pro.
Immerse your iPhone 12 Pro in a bowl of rice if submerged in liquid
This method might seem superfluous but has proven itself over time. The rice will be a natural absorbent that will eventually remove the liquid inside your iPhone 12 Pro. Dry your iPhone 12 Pro as much as possible then immerse it in a bowl of rice for a few hours, or even several days depending on the amount of water in your laptop.
Your iPhone 12 Pro fell in water and then won't turn on
It is common for your iPhone 12 Pro not to turn back on right away. Sometimes it takes a few days for your laptop to be in good shape again. If this is not the case, you will have to go to an Apple Store to entrust your iPhone 12 Pro to a technician.
