A330 secure procedure

[michelda]

In my company we secure the airplane after any flight.
My question is: if you have AC power with the GPU, do you need to wait until APU flap close completely before disconnect APU battery or you can put the battery off (and tha AC power will close it)?
thanks for your replay

BAT 1 and 2 and APU BAT OFF
Wait until the APU flap is fully closed (about 2 minutes after the APU AVAIL light goes out) before switching off the APU battery. Switching the batteries off before the APU flap is closed may cause smoke in the cabin during the next flight.
