accidental spill

so I spilled a teaspoon of juice on my macbook pro 16 inch 2019's right-hand speaker. after about 2 seconds I quickly dabbed and soaked it up with a towel and that was it. I see no current damage to the quality but I'm just not sure what I should do right now which is why I'm contacting you. No noticeable sound difference and I didn't see any liquid soaked inside but I'm still worried

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 11.5

Per How to clean your Apple products - Apple Support: If liquid makes its way inside your Apple product, get help from an Apple Authorized Service Provider or Apple Store as soon as possible. Liquid damage isn't covered under the Apple product warranty or AppleCare Protection Plans, but you may have rights under consumer law. If you plan to visit an Apple Store, make a reservation at the Genius Bar (available only in some countries and regions).

The speaker "grills" on our MacBook Pros are cosmetic and have no holes the lead into the interior. I'm pretty sure that all are cosmetic, at least more modern ones anyway. I read that on one of the Mac sites, but don't recall if any specific years were given.


Not where I read it but same thing.
