Temperature Monitoring
Most DDLs display minimum and maximum temperatures.
- Check and record the minimum and maximum temperatures at the start of each workday.
- If the DDL doesn’t display the min/max temperatures:
- Check and record the current temperature at the start and end of each workday.
- Review the continuous DDL temperature data daily.
Document temperatures using the appropriate log:
- Temperature logs (C° or F°) for freezers
- Temperature logs (C° or F°) for refrigerators
Save documentation for 3 years, unless your state/local jurisdiction requires a longer time period.
