To clean a PlayStation 4, start by unplugging it and removing all cables. Use a dry microfiber cloth to wipe the exterior, avoiding harsh chemicals. For ventilation grilles and ports, gently use a soft, dry toothbrush or compressed air to remove dust. Do not insert any objects into the slots. If confident, you can remove the outer casing to clean internal dust with compressed air, but be aware this might void the warranty. Regular cleaning improves performance and longevity.
