If you are just changing the fuel filter you do not need to disable the fuel pump [by pulling fuse or relay]. Just ensure that the ignition switch [where you put key into] is in the off position.

They were just instructing you on how to burn off the residual pressure in the system before removing the filter. Just be very careful when you disconnect it that it doesn't spray in your eyes. Release the lines slowly.
