So it probably wasn't overheating. But it won't hurt to make sure the vents aren't blocked.

Even if a fire did break out inside the box, they are designed so that the flames would be contained in the case.
Amazed i haven't had this. My V6 in the bedroom is tucked away in a cosy draw (though i have knocked a small air vent in the back if drawers. I'm in big trouble with Mrs K if we move and she sees it ! )
