If you open it and are able to close it up without causing any obvious damage, internally or externally, it won't affect your warranty.

 

If you do cause obvious damage, internally or externally, it will void the warranty. 

 

Do you have a Probook 470 G2 or G3?

No worries.  🙂

 

Opening and using PC compressed air in a can is no issue, as long as you don't cause any damage.
