Operation

6.1

6.1 Overview

The Folding E-bike ( FEB-600 ) i s an electrically assisted bicycle that operates as a standard bicycle, with the

assistance of a motor and battery. The power provided supports the rider

’

s own efforts, giving increased

performance with less effort.

The design of the e-Bike is simple and free of clutter. There is no emission of smoke or noise and

operation is pollution-free. It is important to fully understand the functioning of the e-bikes before you take

your first ride. If you allow the bike to be used by someone else, please ensure that the user is familiar with

the instructions in this manual.

6.2

6.2 The first ride

Before you wheel your bike out into the world, we recommend you practice handling the bike in a safe

area away from obstructions and traffic. The motor may look small, but it

’

s powerful! You ’ ll be riding faster

than you think.

Turn the key to the " "position. A red LED will illuminate below the key socket. If the light flashes, read

the Troubleshooting section of this manual. If it shines steadily,you ’ re ready for the next step.

6.3

6.3 Power

Switch on the power by turning the key to "

'

in the battery, clockwise to the right. As soon as the rider

begins to pedal, the motor supplies energy to support the cyclist

’

s efforts. Power can also be supplied by the

throttle. If the rider prefers to cycle without the assistance of the motor, the ignition may be left

off.

6.4

6.4 E-bike or Throttle Mode

The Folding E-bike ( FEB-600 ) has an independent throttle. This allows the user to choose whether or not to

use the power (independent of pedaling) and, if using it, to vary it according to requirements. Throttle comes

with a thumb push-button , which turns on and off the throttle action. It is best for the life of the battery and

the motor to begin pedaling from start rather than use the throttle at max torque.

Ensure that you are seated and ready to ride before you use the throttle. You may toggle the throttle on

and off with the switch located on it. In E-bike mode, the range of your bike will be approximately 50km . And

even more with Pedal assistance

.

Weight of the user, the terrain, and how much you use the throttle are all

factors in how far you can go.

6.5

6.5 1+1 Pedal Assist Mode

Release the throttle to its neutral position during riding, press cruise speed controller button twice, listen

a beep sound, the system enters into pedelec (PAS) mode. Cut off power supply to the controller to reset this

system.

Note

Note s

s

s :

:

:The PAS functions pedals only if the throttle is not twisted. If the throttle controls the motor without

pedaling, then the bike operates electric only. You may use both pedaling and throttle assist to suit your riding

comfort as well as journey requirement.

6.6

6.6 Cruise speed control

Pressing the cruise control button will make your E- Bike maintain the speed you are currently at.

Squeezing the brakes or pressing the cruise control button again will disable it.

6.7

6.7 Brakes

Make sure your brakes are adjusted correctly at all times.

Fine tuning of the brakes can be made using 5 mm Allen screws that are located at the join of the brake

lever to the cable. Grip the calipers as you loosen the Allen screw on the cable to prevent the end of the brake

cable from slipping out. Adjust the brake cable until the wheel spins freely and the brake operates effectively

when applied.

Replace the brake blocks when worn.

6.8

6.8 Battery level gauge

When riding a fully charged bicycle, the battery level gauge on throttle shows 'FULL' . Powerful

acceleration or uphill riding causes the battery voltage to drop and may bring the level gauge to ‘ HALF' or even

‘ EMPTY ’ (in the cases of very steep hills). As you continue to cycle and the battery power drops, the level

gauge will correspond to the state of charge remaining. When it remains in ‘ HALF

’

and dips into ‘ EMPTY , you

have approximately a 1/3 of the charge left. Best to recharge the battery soon.

To

prevent the battery from

deep discharge, the controller has a low voltage protection cut-off set at 30.0

V.

You may reboot the battery if

it cuts

off,

however continued use of the battery by switching off and on will cause deep discharge and

permanently damage the battery.

6.9

6.9 Lighting system

Folding E-bike ( FEB-600 ) features wide angle high performance LED front and rear lights.They are powered

by the main battery; electrical consumption is negligible, be safe, use them often .

6.10

6.10 Lock

When parking your bicycle, turning the key to the "

"

position and removing it will shut the system off

and lock the battery in place. Use a chain lock to further secure your bicycle when necessary. We also

recommend you insure your bike against theft.

6.11

6.11 Central support stand

This spring loaded stand supports your bike straight up. Use your feet to depress the stand downwards

and pull the bike backwards. Ensure the stand is firmly rested on the ground before leaving the bike. Do not sit

on the bike with the stand parked. The central support stand is made of aluminum alloy and meant to only

take the weight of the bicycle and not with the rider on it.

6.12

6.12 Motor phase Calibrating

The controller can work brushless motors with different phase angles other than defaulted 120

degree. Below are procedures to allow the controller to match the motor phases:

Cut-off power to controller and motor

Grip and hold power brake lever, turn throttle to maximum speed position, press

and hold the cruise control button, turn on the power switch (using battery key)



Connect battery power to the system, release throttle, release brake lever, release cruise

control button.

Listen for two beep sounds, then turn the motor wheel forward and reverse once.

Recharge the battery at least once a month even if you are not using it.

Reason: The battery will discharge small amounts of electrical energy even when you are

not using it. Your battery might experience low voltage corruption if you do not charge it.

Always wear a safety helmet when you ride the bike.

Always turn on the LED lights when it is dark.

Slow down and keep your speed slow while riding near traffic or in a crowded place.

Check for loose wires, screws, bolts and connections.

Check the tire pressure at least once per week.

Always tug on the battery pack after mounting and locking it to the sliding rack to check

if it has mounted securely onto the rack.

Always use a damp cloth when cleaning your bike, never use too much water.

Check the Golden Motor forums, website for more updates and new product features.

Give feedback about the product to Golden Motor staff via the Golden Motor forums.

Hub motor and general inspection . After 5,000 kms (3,000 miles) of cycling, we

recommend you arrange to have a thorough inspection of your bicycle by a dealer. This

includes opening up the hub motor to inspect and lubricate the gears.



When you hear a beep sound, motor phase calibrating is successful.

If it fails, swap any two of the three motor phase wires, and repeat the above steps.
