The Kino projector can be placed on any flat surface, with a clear line
of site to the area you wish to project onto. You can adjust the tilt of the
Kino by twisting the front foot of the projector to increase or decrease
the angle of projection.

Inserting the Effect Wheel
Position the magnetic wheel onto the
magnetic adaptor on the projector.
To remove the wheel simply lift it off.
Focussing the Image
To focus the projected effect, twist the lens left or right until your
desired focus is achieved.
The [OPTI] Kino projects a moving image of any size,
however it is recommended that the maximum image projected
is 4m/13" in diameter. An image can be projected onto any
medium. For best results, use the projector in a dark
environment.

Cleaning the Focussing Lens
Use a soft tissue or lens cloth with a little
methylated spirit or pure alcohol. When
dusting the Kino please ensure to take care with the wooden body
using appropriate cleaning fluids and materials, and gentle wiping
down ensuring the cloth doesn’t catch on any corners.
Operating the Projector
Switching On/Switching Off
To turn the projector on, connect the power supply cable to the
inlet socket on the rear of the projector. After connecting the power, the
projector will revert to whichever on/off state it was in when the power
4

was last disconnected. If the projector was on when power was last
disconnected then it will come on. If it was in standby (off) when the
power was last disconnected, it will go into standby mode (light and
motor off).
The ‘Manual Control Button’ next to the power socket is used to
control the projector in basic (non-App) mode. To turn the projector on
or off, press the button once briefly.
Dimming the Image
The projector has a bright dimmable light that is perfect in a home
environment.
To dim the image in basic (non-App) mode, turn on the light (if not
already on), then press and hold down the ‘Manual Control Button’.
The light will gradually dim down and then back up again and will
continue to do so as long as the button is held. To set your desired
brightness level, simply release the button when the desired level is
reached.

Basic Control
The basic functions of the Kino (on/off/dimming) can be controlled
directly from the Home page of the App.
To the right of each device listed on the Home page you will see an
on/off button. Click on this to turn the corresponding device on and off.
In addition, each device listed on the Home page also has a
‘Common Functions’ control feature. Click on the green ‘Common
Functions’ text for the device you wish to control and the Common
Functions buttons will appear below the text. You can use these
buttons to control on/off as well as dimming.
Notes:
When controlling dimming, the brightness level will change to the new
setting when you release the slider button. It will not change as you
move the slider.
Dimming control is independent from on/off control. You can still
adjust the dimming level when the device is set to ‘Off’ and the new
setting will be seen when you turn the device back on.
The minimum dimming level is 10%. If you want the light to go to
0% brightness (i.e. off) you must use the on/off button.
Full Control
The full range of functions for the Kino Projector can be controlled
by going to its dedicated Device Panel.
From the Home page, choose which device you wish to control
and click somewhere within the grey box for that device where there is
no direct control button (e.g. on the picture or on the device name).
