Spilt tea, coffee, water or any other liquid on your laptop? Follow these steps:

  1. Turn off the power at the mains
  2. Unplug the power supply from the laptop, if you have spilt liquid on the adapter we reccomend you buy a new one.
  3. If running on the battery, remove the battery. Usually there is a release function on the base of the laptop.
  4. Try and drain as much of the liquid from the laptop as possible.
  5. Wipe any liquid still remaining with a paper towel.

Contact a qualified technician or strip the laptop down and determine which components need replacing. It is possible that your laptop will require a new motherboard or potentially any laptop component.
