When using adaptive cruise control, your car will try to maintain your set target speed as well as your set distance to other cars. You can adjust both your target speed and general distance to cars ahead using the steering wheel controls.
You can set adaptive cruise control as your default assisted driving feature in settings. This allows you to activate it with the Pilot Assist button 
on the steering wheel.
While driving you can switch between Pilot Assist and adaptive cruise control using the switch button 
on the steering wheel's control panel on the left-hand side.

Conditions and limitations
While Pilot Assist can also provide steering assistance, adaptive cruise control cannot. However, you can still get steering interventions from features such as lane keeping aid or in situations causing steering interventions. Conditions and limitations relating to detection capabilities, distance- and speed-keeping are shared between Pilot Assist and adaptive cruise control. The Pilot Assist conditions and limitations related to steering assistance do not apply to adaptive cruise control because the sub-feature does not provide any steering assistance.
