Official wording
Wiping cloths not stored clean and dry, or in a sanitizing solution, between uses.

Hot TCS food item not held at or above 140 °F.
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.
