This document provides instructions for the Dreambaby Rapid Response Infrared Thermometer (Model F342, JPD-FR202). It is designed for quick and accurate temperature measurement of both the human body and objects.
Function Description:
The Dreambaby Rapid Response Infrared Thermometer measures temperature based on the infrared energy emitted by the forehead or an object (such as milk or water). It provides a rapid 1-second reading with a one-click trigger action. The device features a large backlit display with a fever alert system, including both a light and sound alert. Users can switch between body and object temperature modes, and the temperature unit can be changed between Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F). It also includes a silent mode option, a 20-reading memory recall function, and an automatic shut-off after 10 seconds of inactivity to conserve battery life.

Usage Features:
The thermometer is designed for ease of use.
- Initial Setup: Before first use, open the battery cover and remove the insulating piece.
- Power On/Off: Press and release the Trigger button to turn on. The device automatically powers off after 10 seconds of inactivity.
- Unit Selection: Press the °C/°F button to switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit.
- Mode Selection: Press the Mode button to toggle between Body Temperature Mode (indicated by the forehead symbol) and Object Temperature Mode (indicated by the house symbol).
- Taking a Measurement (Body Temperature):
- Aim the sensor at the center of the forehead.
- Move towards the forehead to a distance of 2-3cm.
- Press and release the Trigger measure button.
- Read the temperature on the display.
- Fever Alerts:
- 34.9°C-37.5°C / 94.8°F−99.5°F: A long beep and green backlight.
- 37.6°C-42.2°C / 99.6°F-108°F: 3 short double beeps and red backlight.
- Taking a Measurement (Object Temperature):
- Aim the sensor at the center of the object 2-3cm away.
- Press and release the Trigger measure button.
- Read the temperature on the display.
- Alerts: 0°C-100°C / 32.0°F-212.0°F: A long beep and white backlight.
- Memory Function:
- Turn power on.
- Press and hold the Mode button until "F-1" is displayed.
- Press the °C/°F or Mute/un-mute button to scroll through the 20 stored readings, with "1" representing the latest data.
- Mute Mode:
- Press and release the Trigger to turn on.
- Press the Mute/un-mute button to toggle silent operation. The speaker symbol appears in sound mode and disappears in mute mode.

- Press the °C/°F button to increment the threshold by 0.1°C/°F, or the Mute/un-mute button to decrement it by 0.1°C/°F. The tunable range is 35.0°C-42.0°C (95.0°F−107.6°F). The default threshold is 37.6°C.
Maintenance Features:
- Cleaning:
- Remove batteries.
- Clean the lens of the temperature probe with a dry cotton swab (do not use tissue paper).
- Wipe the body of the thermometer with a soft, slightly damp cloth and mild detergent (do not immerse in water or use corrosive cleaners).
- Disinfecting: Use Isopropyl alcohol solution (70% concentration). Do not microwave, use hot steam, or ultraviolet light to disinfect.
- Storage: Store in a dry, dust-free, well-ventilated location. Remove batteries if the thermometer will not be used for a long time (more than two months).
- Battery Replacement: When the low-battery symbol is displayed, replace the 2x AAA batteries. Slide off the battery cover, insert new batteries according to polarity, and close the cover. Rechargeable batteries cannot be used, and mixing alkaline and standard batteries is not recommended. Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
- Pre-use Check: Before each use, check the thermometer for any signs of damage or wear.
Warnings and Cautions:
- Keep out of reach of children; it is not a toy.
- For domestic/home use only; not intended to diagnose or treat health problems. Measurement results are for reference only. Consult a physician for self-diagnosis or self-treatment.
- Do not take body temperature readings within 20 minutes after physical exercises.
- Ensure ambient temperature is within 10°C-40°C (50°F-104°F) for accurate readings. Keep the thermometer at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before use.
- The temperature probe lens is fragile; handle with care.
- Do not immerse in water or expose to direct sunlight.
- Avoid vibration or impact.
- Do not touch the tip of the temperature probe to prevent sensor damage.
- Do not disassemble or attempt to repair the thermometer.
- For body temperature, users should be inside for 30 minutes before measurement, and both user and thermometer should be in the same ambient temperature for at least 10 minutes.
- Avoid drinking, eating, bathing, showering, shampooing, or hair drying before/while taking body temperature. Remove hats and wait 10 minutes.
- Oils or cosmetics on the forehead may affect readings; clean the forehead and wait at least 10 minutes after washing.
- Holding a hand on the forehead will affect readings.
- Do not take temperature over scar tissue, open sores, or abrasions, or on a perspiring/sweating forehead.
- Do not take measurements while or immediately after nursing a baby.
- Avoid taking temperatures near very hot places like fireplaces or stoves.
- Do not use mobile phones or other devices during measurement to avoid electromagnetic interference.
- Do not mix alkaline and standard batteries.
- Protect the environment by not disposing of the product with household waste. Check local authorities for recycling advice.
