SYMBOL PARAMETER MIN MAX
VDD Supply voltage -0.3 4.6 V

You need to read the definition of the term "Absolute Maximum Rating" in the Definitions section at the end of the document:

"Limiting values definition — Limiting values given are in accordance with the Absolute Maximum Rating System (IEC 60134). Stress above one or more of the limiting values may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only and operation of the device at these or at any other conditions above those given in the Characteristics sections of the specification is not implied. Exposure to limiting values for extended periods may affect device reliability." (my emphasis)


The Characteristics table specifies the operating VDD range as 2.3-3.6V.

All clear now?
