PW1100 engine operation in rain & hail

Dear all,

I have access to the PW 1100G-JM operations review A320NEO aircraft document and there is a section about operation in moderate to heavy rain and hail and here's their recommendation:
Use the procedures listed below when operating in or near moderate to heavy rain and hail.
** Start the APU if available to assist with relight in event of a flameout.
** keep Autothrust OFF
** Do not make rapid thrust lever movements, even to correct fluctuations in engine parameters.
** Use engine anti- ice as required.
I could not find anything about it in the FCOM tho
What are you thoughts about it?

Thanks.
