STEP 1

Get out your iPhone water as quickly as possible and then dry it. The longer it remains submerged, the greater the risk that it is unrecoverable.

NB. Please do place your iPhone near a source of heat (radiator, etc.) and especially not use hairdryer. Doing so could permanently damage your device.

STEP 2

Once your iPhone out of the water, immediately turn it off. If nothing happens, hold for a few seconds on the power button (power button) and the Home button (front panel key) to force it to turn off.

STEP 3

Extraction Tool Sim Card

Then remove your SIM card and his drawer. This requires you to use the SIM eject tool included with your iPhone. Store them carefully.

STEP 6

Once your iPhone on the road again, test all its functions to ensure that everything is back in order.

Also note that a patch in the device allows Apple to find out if your iPhone is already fallen into the water. It turns red when immersed. If this is the case, the warranty is canceled.
