What does "Auto" do in channel selection

Can somebody confirm what setting "Auto" actually does in Channel settings for 2.4 & 5Ghz Wifi setup.
My understanding is that it is supposed to detect and avoid conflicting channel selection.
So if I have one EAP, it fins neighbour is using channel 6 for 2.4G and 48 for 5G, I assume "Auto" will select for my EAP an alternative channel, e.g. 1 or 11 for 2.4G and maybe 36 for 5G?
But if I have 2 EAPs and both are set to "Auto", shouldn't it also choose each EAP's channels automatically to avoid them interfering with each other?
I have 2 EAP245s set to Auto and see no evidence that it's choosing different channels for each.
