It says that below FL200 cab alt 0. So i was assuming we slowly let the valve open during descend.
Thinking in terms of opening and closing the outflow valve can be confusing. It is easier to think in terms of raising or lowering the cabin altitude and it is done by simply raising the switch or lowering the switch. To lower cabin altitude from 3000 to zero lower the switch. Rest is as pineteam explained.
