FM3 and temperature at summer gigs

Does anybody know what internal temperature is too much for the FM3? Playing some summer festivals and temperatures are really high right now. FM3 shows 132 F and gets a little bit warm. Just want to be safe and have an eye on that.
 
Good Q.

Regardless, try to keep the FM3 in the shade, even if its just a spot of shade.
I have an outdoor gig in mid-July and will be keeping the FM3 out of the sun and running the FC6 to the front of stage via a long XLR partially for this reason.
 
Maybe even bringing some cardboard big enough to build a bit of a sun shade over the unit/pedalboard might help. Paint one side black to make it look less like a cornflakes packet :)
