High temperature dishwasher final rinse temperature was at or above 71 degrees C at the plate level (measured at 74 and 76.9 degrees C during two runs).
Dishwasher final rinse temperature was at least 180 degrees F for at least 10 seconds during the final rinse cycle at the manifold level.
Ventilation hood was in a clean condition.
Ice machine was not being used to store ice on-site.
