Default Radio Auto Volume vs Car Speed

I have a new 2018 Touring Sport Coupe.I have tried to set the volume vs car speed to no avail.The owners manual says that if is set to O, it is off.When I accelerate and increase my speed my volume doesn't change,same on decel, no volume change.I've had and used this on prior Bose systems in previous cars without any issues. I'm assuming it's possibly finger trouble,but the adjustment seems pretty straight forward.My first tech question on a three week old car.

Not sure if anything has changed since my 2014 but all I do is push the + in the speed sensitive vol. & run it all the way up. (all leds lit up) I have a roadster & with the top down at highway speed the volume increases a lot.

Thanks OldGuyFla, I tried that several times,but no changes.I'll keep messing with it.Maybe I'll try dropping it down a gear on the highway and let it make more noise at speed.I have a highway trip tomorrow morning.Maybe I don't have enough speed in town for it to be effective.My wife's Mazda has a bold gold system and it works like a charm anywhere.
Also,I just remembered,I didn't see any leds light up.

Update: LEDs work.Will check tomorrow.3 hour round trip, highway & secondary roads.
Will also check on my neighbors roadster tomorrow for comparison purposes.
