    Hi, have a look at the cleaning guide posted in the ASUS Info Booth. That might help.

    Usually the FAN is either:
    1. Under a quick-access panel on the bottom of the notebook. Example: V6
    2. Accessible by removing the keyboard.
    3. Very, very difficult to access, requiring the entire notebook case to be diassembled. Example: M6BNe.

    I do not know a manual, I haven't even heard about ASUS A3500E.

    But 1. and 2. are worth a try.

    There are 3 screws at the back of A3500E, near DC connector. Loose these 3 screws and open a cover which shape likes 7. You can see a copper radiator over the CPU. Loose another 4 screws, put the radiator out carefully. There are much dirty dust. A vacuum cleaner is necessary.
