You probably can't. Phones are not waterproof and complete dunking will probably kill them. You could try taking out the battery and then leaving it in a sealed container or bag with some rice (uncooked!) in it (make sure the rice does not get into the phone). Then put the container in a warm place and wait a few days before trying to switch it on again. The rice will help absorb the moisture.

It worked for me on a phone that was heavily splashed with water. Whether it will for one that has been fully immersed is another matter.
