Read the owner's manual for your machine. Of course, it will give recommended storage temps, not those for just a brief time.
I have left my INRatio very very briefly in my car while traveling -- buried under things in the back seat, out of the sunlight -- when going into a truck stop, filling up the car, grabbing a quick burger inside rather than getting it to go. I've never noticed any problems. But If I know I'm going to be gone for more than say 5-10 minutes, I carry my monitor into the restaurant, wherever. I have a luggage tag on the handle with a REWARD!!!!!!!!!! note.
Just remember that these units contain sensitive electronics. I read in the last week a warning against leaving a GPS unit in a closed car in the summer. (Hey, what about those built-in GPS units??)
