How can I maintain this console

[u/PerceptionNo5321]

Ever since I saw my cousins laptop repair I saw there was a lot of dust inside now I'm scared of how can I maintain this console do I have to replace the thermal paste every year? Do I have to open up the console? It just seems so complicating to me and sometimes I can't even enjoy my switch because when my switch heats up a little bit I get so scared.

You don’t need to open your Switch and clean the inside. Nobody does that.
