This is normal and will not affect its performance or life. Ventilation openings must be kept clean and free of foreign matter. The most effective method of cleaning the vents is with compressed air. Do not attempt to clean by inserting pointed objects through the openings. STORAGE Always allow the heat gun to cool to room temperature before storing.
