So you suggest he draw the flammable fumes over the electric motor?

Bathroom fans are 100% shaded pole motors that do not have brushes to
spark. The on-off wall switch might spark, but only on turning off,
when the fumes are hopefully gone.

Exactly right. And turn the fan on before opening the container of acetone
too.
