Default adaptative cruise control - start from a full-stop.

Hi
What could be the reason for the cruise control not starting to drive automatically on light stops?

i mean, the two-cars drawing gets grey, not white. I need to accelerate manually to start driving.
I thought a couple of weeks ago, it was starting to drive automatically when there was a traffic movement in front of me.

If less than 3 seconds, it’ll move off automatically. Longer than that needs driver input.

Presumably this is to mitigate the risk of a pedestrian crossing between stationary vehicles, or at a traffic light where the car in front goes through the red light.

It used be approx. 3 seconds on the V70, on the V90 it's a little longer (never timed it). The driver 'input ' is a quick push on the speed increase button just above the main selection button. This works for about 20-30 seconds after which the function drops out. Sorry to be so vague but it's use is totally second nature after a while.

I wish they'd add a few more seconds on.

JLR vehicles do it for 180 seconds !!
