Jewish law requires some new utensils to be ritually immersed in water before use[1]. There are differences of opinion around electrical appliances, but I have successfully dunked toasters, cheese toasters, and many other small appliances, let them dry for a few days, and never had any issues.

In fact, had OP found this[2] article, they would have seen that

> Practice has demonstrated that immersion generally does not harm most equipment if allowed three days to dry out.
