Flaps 10 glide during engine failure

When you have an engine failure on single engine aircraft, do you use flaps 10 (for C172, so generally, do you select lift flaps) as soon as possible, or do you initially glide with flaps up?

What are the pros & cons of using lift flaps early during an engine failure?
