    Hello!

    Is it possible to reach the fans without disconnecting the screen? Because on the disassembly guide I didn't saw any fans so I presume they are located under the screen?

    Greetz!

    if you only intend to clean the fans with compressed air, you just need to remove the back panel and blow the compressed air into the vents, detaching the screen is unnecessary.

    DO you have to remove the keyboard for that?
