Flare Mode on A320

Hello there,

Anyone here who can describe when the flare mode would NOT be active during a manual landing (normal law)?

I am referring to a normal landing with no failures, and no CB's pulled.

I was told recently that the 320 flare mode (2 deg nose down over 8 seconds input) was not operative when the FD's were switched off for the approach, but I struggle to find any reference in FCOM's (mind you, info could be there anyways, Airbus has a talent for hiding stuff in hard to find places!).

The FCOM 1.17.20 only describes the flare mode, but does not give any exceptions for its operation.

Any help appreciated, thanks.
