Here are some suggestions for dealing with it:
1. Immediately deactivate and shut down: When water is found in the device, the phone should be stopped and shut down immediately to avoid further damage to the hardware and circuit of the phone.
2. Check the water resistance level of the device: The iPhone 12 Pro Max has IP68 water resistance, that is, it can protect the phone from up to 6 meters of water immersion for up to 30 minutes under certain conditions. If you are in an environment that exceeds this setting, your phone may fail. Please check whether the equipment meets the standards and adjust it according to your use.
3. Dry the equipment: After turning off the power of the equipment, place it in a dry and ventilated place in order to try to evaporate any moisture that is present. It is recommended to use a desiccant or leave it in a dry place such as an air-conditioned room for a few days.
4. Contact customer service or repair: If the device still does not work properly after the above steps, it is recommended to contact Apple customer service or seek the help of an officially certified Apple repair service organization. They can test the integrity of equipment, repair damaged parts and ensure that equipment is in normal use.
It should be noted that because water and circuit contact is easy to cause oxidation, making maintenance more difficult, so it is best to avoid equipment water or use waterproof sleeves and other preventive measures to protect the equipment.
