Default Need help in CPR - For how long i have to keep Camera in Sun? plzzzz

Hi!
As advised by many generous people i have placed my camera in sun wrapped in rice further placed in a black case in the car and car is parked under sun. Now! sun here in Jordan is quite warm n once i went to check on it..car was like an ovan and i could barely touch the camera (Though its not getting direct sunlight) i hope it wont cause further damages? i dont c any fogging of LCD, is it a good sign? no fogging inside the lense (It was not there before as well)..... I am working on DAMAGE CONTROL NOW... so please guide me around plzzz...its just like giviong a desparate CPR to a dying friend of urz (Though u already know he is dead) so this camera is my friend...
Thanking in anticipation

Don't use the camera until it has attained room temperature. Better still, don't use it for 24 hours. The internal parts, plastic or metal, may have been distorted during high temperatures. They may settle back to the original shape after a while.
