From the FCTM...

A normal approach is flown except that in the final stages of the approach, the target speed is VLS and the max V/S at touchdown is 360 ft/min.
Taking into account the runway landing distance available, modulate the use of brakes to avoid very hot brakes and the risk of tyre deflation.
So you are striving to minimise brake use and achieve a relatively smooth touchdown. Both are known to extend landing distance...
