If you do not have a service center near you, you can try keeping it turned off for a day or two. If it was just water, and you're lucky, then it may not have caused damage. If it starts behaving strangely then get it looked at.


I also note this computer is running Yosemite which means it is likely a pretty old computer. Depending upon the age, Apple may not even offer to look at it at all:
