- no descent bellow the minimum bevor reach the descent-gradient from final-approach (normally 3°) respectively the glide from the PAPI-/VASI-lights
...within the protected area.

i understand that it is where you manouevre outside 30 degs from the main instrument RW once you have the required visual references, to achieve a vis landing on another RW. Visual references are relaxed to include "any aerodrome feature that fixes the ac's position.
