...however it is REV 03
And this is from REV 16:

The flight mode changes to flare mode at landing, when passing 100 feet.
Flare mode is a direct stick-to-elevator relationship (with some damping provided by load factor and pitch rate feedbacks).
In addition, at 50 feet, a slight pitch down elevator order is applied, so that the pilot has to move the stick rearwards to maintain a constant path, so as to reproduce conventional aircraft aerodynamic characteristics.


And you're right, 320 FCOM says a little bit more:

... as the aircraft descends through 30 feet, the system begins to reduce the
pitch attitude, reducing it to 2 deg nose-down over a period of 8 seconds.
