Don't worry about it, there are people on this forum that have never even heard their fan come on before.
As long as you know there's the proper amount of coolant in the bike then the fan will only come on in extreme situations.
When the bike's cold check the coolant level in the expansion tank under the right side of the seat when on level ground on the centre stand.
If you've never done it before, buy some Radflush and give the coolant system a proper clean up then refill properly with a decent bike coolant for peace of mind. Once it's all working fine and you have an airtight system with no leaks you rarely even have to top it up.
But you can easily check the expansion tank level visually to make sure all is well without pulling the bike apart.
Once the bike cools down the level should more or less stay the same, i fill mine up just below the upper level on the expansion tank, and right to the top by the radiator cap.
Some people prefer to mix their own coolant, i've always found this stuff to be spot on and premixed.
