The emergency fuel ejection protocol is a theoretical second chance at saving the Dark Matter Reactor, and is only to be attempted after the primary shutdown system fails. To conduct a manual combustion stall, all fuel cells must be ejected by pulling the cell lock switch into the unlocked position within three (3) seconds of each other. If the lever is pulled multiple times, or pulling it too early will cause the fuel cell to get jammed or the others to get jammed due to pressure imbalances and the shutdown attempt will fail. Attempting an emergency fuel ejection is not recommended, as even if it is perfectly performed, there is still a 50% chance that it will fail. What's more, the radiation levels reach so high that anyone who dares assist in an emergency fuel ejection WILL receive a lethal dose of radiation even with a hazmat suit, and even to survive long enough to attempt an emergency fuel ejection you require a healing or neo coil to replenish your health. Also do note, this is not required like an Emergency Reactor Shutdown Protocol, and as soon the primary shutdown system fails all personnel, including the Reactor Operations team, are authorized and encouraged to evacuate.
