Wet digital radio

I dropped my digital radio XDR- P1DBP in some water. I have left in a bowl of rice 🍚 for 4 days, now it only works properly off the mains, the switch does not operate normally

can anyone advise me what to do?

Thanks

Martin

Hello @Bognettle,

I would try to disassemble the device if you feel comfortable to be able to reassemble it later on.

If electronics get wet, they corrode, so they may have bad electrical contact.

For future reference - don't just put the wet device into a bowl of rice, but rather use a hairdryer to heat the device up enough to make the water evaporate - then later on use rice or even better silicea-gel to dry off the remaining liquid.
