PLA doesn't produce fumes - with ABS you need some ventilation.
For PLA a dilute solution of PVA applied to the glass bed helps it to stick and the parts come off quite easily when the bed cools.
Operating in a warm environment helps minimise warping.
If you are printing fine detail or small objects a cooling fan helps - it should be turned on after the first layer has been deposited.
Be prepared for some experimenting....
