When looking at the policy setting descriptions and the docs.microsoft page for https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/deployment/update/waas-restart, we can determine that the "default behavior" would be a warning and reboot in 5 minutes if you have "No auto-restart with logged on users for scheduled automatic update installations" set to Not Configured or Disabled.

So theoretically the outcome would be a countdown to 180 minutes and then restart.
But as always be sure to test it out in a test environment or on a limited subject 🙂
