There's not really much to worry about as far as being electrocuted. Just remember these things:

1) unplug the AC power cord
2) remove all batteries
3) unplug any DC adapter if you use one for power
4) stay away from water
5) work in a location that won't build up a lot of static electricity

One thing I do, whether it helps or not, is push the power button with all power unplugged.

I see that warning as a challenge. ;-)
(I'm still alive, too.)
