Safe to clean throttle body?

Since it is dbw and not conventional type? I'd like to use some throttle body cleaner for a rough idle like I did on my old car.

Its probably fine since the DBW uses an electric motor instead of a cable to open the throttle plate. The electronics are outside of the throttle body where you'll be spraying the throttle body cleaner anyhow.
