That's correct.
You should be able to feel if the notebook is getting too hot and they also are supposed to have a fail-safe mechanism that warns you the PC is getting too hot, and will be shut down.
Then the PC shuts itself down, giving a thermal shutdown error.
Normally those AMD processors run pretty hot, so if the fan doesn't come on every now and then, I would suggest not turning off the fan always on setting.
