IF YOU TAKE IT APART TURN THE CONSOLE ON AND OFF FIRST TO DISPERSE EXTRA CHARGE OTHERWISE YOU WILL BLOW A FUSE.

I dunno, I've repaired dozens of consoles and I've never had a problem blowing a fuse and I've never turned it off and on while unplugged. I guess just let it sit for a little while between unplugging it and cleaning it so you don't have to worry about charge from the capacitors.

Make sure you don't drop it on the carpet. Oh and I guess you can touch a metal grounding point to discharge static electricity from your body.
