So long as it's set to auto then it'll apply the handbrake as soon as you come to a rest, but sometimes you might need to do a little bit firmer prod of the pedal to engage it if you really really gently roll to a stop.
The green light comes on in the instrument binnacle if it's just on normal hold (brake lights on) or a red light if it's fully applied.
As above, it works really well. You can get the odd day when it's a bit clunky but by and large after 4.5 years of MK7 ownership I've found it smooth and reliable.
