must be located to measure the air temperature in the
warmest part of the unit.

• In a hot-FOOD storage unit, the sensor of a
TEMPERATURE-MEASURING DEVICE must be located
to measure the air temperature in the coolest part of the
unit.

• Cold or hot holding EQUIPMENT used for
POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS FOOD must be designed
to include and must be equipped with at least one integral
or affixed TEMPERATURE-MEASURING DEVICE that
is located to allow easy viewing of the device’s temperature
display.
