Dealing with water damage

General advice

Tablet

  • If your tablet is connected with any cables, disconnect them.

  • If your tablet is connected wirelessly, it may have an on/off button. Turn it off.

Pen

  • Remove the nib to help it dry faster

  • Keep the pen upright with the nib removed and pointed down to help drain water

  • Some pen buttons are a "rocker" type that can be removed and put back in. If you are confident you will not harm your pen, this is one option.

  • Some people disassemble their pens, but only try this if you find a good reference on YouTube and are comfortable working with electronics.
