Fixed appliances
For fixed devices, fresh water should be used to clean screens and keyboards. The objective is to remove the salt. These screens are generally waterproof and can withstand the treatment well. But under no circumstances should a high pressure cleaner be used. A simple water sprayer and a dry cloth are more than enough.

Ideally, you should unplug all the equipment. You start by cutting off the power supply (circuit breaker at the electrical panel) and then unplugging all the outlets. Normally, these are marked, so you can't make a mistake when reconnecting, but nothing prevents you from installing labels if you have any doubts. This will also be the occasion to spray some dehumidifier in each socket (male and female).
If the devices have memory cards installed, it is recommended to remove them from the device. This is often the case with multifunctional devices.
Take your devices home

The portable equipment (VHF, remote control, etc.) works with batteries. If they are batteries, we will take care to remove them from their place so that they do not "leak" damaging the carrier.

Batteries should not be left connected to their charger continuously. It is better to do a full charge and renew it once in the winter. If you have the opportunity, you can also turn on the device to empty its battery before recharging it. The battery will thank you for its longevity.
