I was always taught from a very early stage that if you hear the words 'avoiding action' or 'immediately' associated with any ATC clearance then you disconnect the autopilot and 'just do it'. I have never practised it in recurrent sim sessions however which is a shame as it would take less than a minute to do as part of a LOFT excercise.
