Anything below 3.2 and they can't guarantee the voltage you have it set at anymore, thus they disable it.
3.2 means your battery is at a pretty low state of charge and it's time for a recharge.
At that point, you aren't that far above the danger level of 2.5 volts and you don't want to push it. Since the amount of available power is very low, the mod can't guarantee that the power is available for vaping, either.

Lithium-ion batteries are rated at 3.7 volts. That doesn't meant that's what they always put out though. When the battery is fully charged, it will read approximately 4.2 volts, and "fully discharged" will be at approximately 3.2 volts. If a battery goes below 3.2 volts, it can possibly damage the battery. That's why a high quality mod like a ProVari will cut off at 3.2 volts.
I expected it to go to zero.

Nope. Even a pretty much "stone dead" AA alkaline battery is still around 0.6 to 0.8 volts, depending on the device used. It's interesting to note that I can build a circuit to drain them completely, down to around 0.3 volts, but towards the end of that the LED I'm lighting is extremely dim and hardly worth calling a "light."
At some point, the voltage of any battery becomes so low that the electronics you're powering become unreliable. Electronics, at that point, are built smart enough to either complain or simply shut down (or both, like my camera).
If you discharge a Li-ion or LI-Mn battery to zero volts you need to throw it away.
When the gas tank is full your battery reads 4.2v.
Most of the life of the gas tank your battery is maintaining 3.7v.
When the gas tank is empty, your battery reads 3.2 - 3.3v.

I read it mostly before use, but didn't see anything about the battery cutting off at 3.2v
