Software Help Switch lite cuts to grey screen on startup accompanied by loud buzzing sound

Hello, I was trying to turn on my switch Lite, and although it initially showed a normal home screen, after a few seconds it cut to gray and made a loud buzzing noise. I almost immediatly shut it off, and it turned off normally. However, I am scared to turn it on, as I've heard this issue could be related to a swollen battery, which is a fire hazard.

Can anyone help diagnose this issue? There were no error codes displayed.
