You will therefore see with this article what to do in the event of water infiltration with your iPhone 14 Pro.
The first steps to take in the event of contact with a liquid to save an iPhone 14 Pro that has taken on water
Several actions are to be followed as soon as your iPhone 14 Pro has been immersed in a liquid. Be careful, everything you can find on the web will not always be correct, and you risk further damaging your device if you do not adopt the right actions to carry out in an emergency.
iPhone 14 Pro submerged: uninstall accessories
Start by uninstalling all the accessories from your iPhone 14 Pro if it has just fallen into liquid. Therefore, remove earphones, safety shells, etc. Indeed, the accessories could retain water in the ports or on the surface of your iPhone 14 Pro.
If your iPhone 14 Pro ever gets wet, start by wrapping it in a tea towel
Get a clean, dry, lint-free towel. Remove excess liquid from your iPhone 14 Pro by gently tapping the wet areas. Then wrap your iPhone 14 Pro in this towel for several minutes.
Dry your smartphone
You can then move on to the drying phase of your iPhone 14 Pro. To do this, do not use a hair dryer or any other device that blows hot air. Indeed, exposing your iPhone 14 Pro to excessive heat or any other heat treatment can permanently damage some internal components of your smartphone. Instead, use a fan so you can blow dry air onto your iPhone 14 Pro. Do not charge your smartphone when it is still wet. You can load it again once completely dry.
Water infiltration of your iPhone 14 Pro: the speakers are muffled
When your iPhone 14 Pro comes into contact with liquid, chances are the microphone or speakers are broken. If so, the ringtone will not come out well, like muffled. In this case, position the speakers of your iPhone 14 Pro downwards so that the liquid flows. Then dry your iPhone 14 Pro.
Immerse your iPhone 14 Pro in a bowl of rice if submerged in liquid
This method may seem superfluous but has proven itself over time. Rice is a natural absorbent that will eventually remove the liquid inside your iPhone 14 Pro. Dry your iPhone 14 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 smartphone.
Your iPhone 14 Pro fell in water and no longer turns on
It's normal for your iPhone 14 Pro not to turn back on right away. It will sometimes take a few days before your smartphone can be operational again. If this is not the case, you have to go to an Apple Store to entrust your iPhone 14 Pro in the hands of a professional.
