Airbus' Emergency Door Operation
 

Greeting from Brazil. I would like to know if someone could give some hints or help me find some sort of file or website concerning the emergency operation of Airbus' doors.
Precisely, I'm looking for info on the pneumatic system that blows the door out, and recommendations for the times when the system does not work properly, or at all.

Thanks a lot

I know that you should NOT force the door open unless you are sure the "Power Assist" has failed. Pushing the door unecessarily can cause it to jam. This was shown in VS023 landing at LHR in 1997.

• If the door power assist fails the door will not open automatically:
DOOR . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . PUSH TO OPEN
GUST LOCK . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . CHECK ENGAGED
SLIDE DEPLOYED AND INFLATED . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . VISUAL CHECK
• If the slide does not inflate;
RED, MANUAL INFLATION HANDLE . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . PULL

I could not find anything about it.
Would you, by any chance, care to bring to this forum what have happened then?
Thanks in advance!!!
