When using time only as a public health control for up to 4 hours, discard all TCS food that has been out of temperature control for more than 4 hours; was not at 41 degrees F (5 degrees C) or less when removed from temperature control; or is in unmarked containers.
In plain English
Food was not kept cold enough, hot enough, cooled fast enough, or cooked or reheated to the right temperature. Bacteria grow quickly in the "danger zone" between 41°F and 135°F, which makes this one of the most important food-safety checks.

Have an item to verify the surface temperature of dishes reaches 160 degrees F inside mechanical hot water dishwashers.
Inspector’s notes
NO TEMPERATURE MEASURING DEVICE FOR SURFACE TEMPERATURE OF DISHES ON SITE. OBTAIN DISH PUCK, T-STICKS, OR T-STICKERS.

Food was not kept cold enough, hot enough, cooled fast enough, or cooked or reheated to the right temperature. Bacteria grow quickly in the "danger zone" between 41°F and 135°F, which makes this one of the most important food-safety checks.
For mechanical dishwashing machines using hot water sanitizing, the surface temperature of the utensils and equipment must reach 160 degrees F or higher.
Inspector’s notes
DISH MACHINE USING HOT WATER SANITIZING DID NOT REACH 160°F AFTER 3 ATTEMPTS. CALL MACHINE COMPANY FOR SERVICE OF UNIT.
