The MacBook Air M2 is fanless - it dissipates heat through the chassis. In sleep mode, it should be cool. If it's warm or hot after closing the lid, something is preventing real sleep. Most common causes: 1) Power Nap is on - open System Settings → Battery → Options and turn off "Power Nap". 2) A USB device is sending wake events - unplug all peripherals before closing the lid. 3) iCloud or Time Machine is mid-sync - wait for sync to finish before closing. 4) Bluetooth wake - turn off "Wake for network access" in Battery → Options. 5) A misbehaving app blocking sleep - open Terminal and run `pmset -g assertions` to see what's keeping the Mac awake; quit the offending app. 6) Hardware: if you've tried all the above and it's still hot, the Power Management IC could be faulty - bring it to our Dubai workshop for diagnosis.
