Far safer to land them manually with the AP switched off, and the aircraft re-trimmed, during the later stages of the glide-slope.

I'm assuming you're trying engage the autopilot to do a coupled approach. To do this successfully you must be below the glideslope and preferably near center on the localizer prior to engaging the autopilot "approach mode."
This is a sim!! Go ahead & give it a try. You won't hurt anyone or break anything and who knows? You may learn something. That's what sims are for!
Have fun!

Just a thought, Make sure you have tuned your NAV 1 radio to the correct frequency for the ILS. An error I have made on more than one occasion.

Disconnect the AP and re-trim, just prior to landing.
Paul....Radio Navigation is fun!...(Especially on the default Bendix-King Radio Stack!).... ...!
P.S. For anyone wishing to learn the ins and out of Radio Navigation, I would strongly recommend using the default Cessna 172 Trainer with its Bendix-King Radio Stack!
