Its a very clever aircraft im finding out!
Obviously.... Shame this was copied from Airbus <G>:

FLARE MODE:
.... As Ac descends thru' 30R.. system reduces pitch attitude... by 2deg Nose Down over 8 seconds... means takes gentle nose-up action by pilot to flare aircraft.

This is for A320 series. I believe was not present on A340 etc... Having flown both 320 and 340, cannot say I notice it, so suspect it's a clever feature that makes the FBW feel more realistic where required.
