What to Do If You Spilled Water or Coffee on Your Laptop. Laptops and liquids are a bad combination, but accidents happen. If you’re reading this after a spill, the first thing you should do is turn off your machine, and then remove the power cable and battery as soon as possible.
Here’s a five-step plan to rescue a laptop after a liquid spill. Shut down the laptop. Pressing and holding the power button for five seconds is quickest. Remove the power cord, unplug any peripherals and remove the battery. The biggest danger at this time is the device shorting out.
If you spilled something sticky or sugary, though, like a soft drink or beer, the components will likely need a proper cleaning by a specialist. If you’re comfortable doing so, remove some components to help things dry out. It should be fairly easy to disconnect and remove the SSD or hard drive, as well as any sticks of RAM you spot.
Most computer hardware can survive a dunking in water, provided the power is off. By powering-down the system and removing the battery if possible, you’ve (hopefully) broken the circuit that could lead to a nasty shock and damage your laptop.
