Not a lot. I don't use ACC myself drive within the bongs of traffic sign recognition. Get cramp in my ankle if I don't move it :eek:. You might have to re-engage as if you breaked....

Youngsters like to lock onto the back of the car in front.
 
If there is a car in front of you it wont do anything. If there is nothing in front of you it will accelerate
Actually it will still accelerate. Your acceleration will come to an abrupt halt when the automatic braking (not ACC) decides you are approaching too rapidly.

I tried this this morning with a car in front of me at the range set and it wouldnt accelerate any nearer the car in front
 
Feels a bit like Front Assist that Little John mentions. Uses the same radar but will slam the brakes on if it reckon that on your current velocity / may be acceleration a mere human isn't going yo be able to break. Bends it sometimes gets that wrong if you are turning so will see a bank and reckon you haven't seen it. Gives a warning before dramatic breaking.

ACC probably works better with DSG since it will take the car through the gears dropping speed using engine braking. May be with a manual you might get Little John's effect.

Largely don't use ACC myself, used traffic jam assist that the car has once ?. That's handy on stop / start slow moving traffic. Was an option on 2016 some Atecas.

That's weird. Both the Leon I had previously (manual) and the Ateca I have now (DSG) have never done that. I've frequently used it to maintain speed whilst coming up to someone whilst waiting for a gap to pull out into.
