MacBook Air M2 safe ambience temperatures

Hi,

I'm interested in the new MacBook Air M2, but I'm a bit scared that the laptop has not any fan to refrigerate the components.

I'm a musician, and I use the Mac (actually a MacBook Air 11) on stage. Generally, here in Spain, soundchecks can get up to 30º+ Celsius (two weeks ago, we were doing soundcheck at 42ºC!). I'm scared about this.

Could you please tell me if Apple have done any test with the new MBAir M2 in high temperatures? do they have any scale of "safe" temperatures to work?


Thank you in advance

Ambient temperature for use, according to Apple, should be between 10-35 °C.
