breaker before attempting to remove the power cables from the
electrical outlet. Use the utmost caution when removing wet
cables from a live power source.
Turn off the computer (see page 24), disconnect the AC adapter from

the computer, and then disconnect the AC adapter from the electrical
outlet.
Remove the battery.

Wipe off the battery and put it in a safe place to dry.
3
Turn off any attached external devices, and disconnect them from
4
their power sources and then from the computer.
Ground yourself by touching one of the metal connectors on the back

6
Cards, wipe them off, and put them in a safe place to dry.

books or similar props to let air circulate all around it. Let the
