how to hyperlink TOC title (Contents) in epub to Table of Contents page?

Question

I have a book file in InDesign and when I export it as an epub file, all the chapters are linked correctly in the device (navigational) TOC.

Except for the actual title of the TOC: Contents

I have checked other ebooks on my kindle and all of them have a hyperlinked "Contents" title which goes to the Table of Contents page. For example, I can click on Chapter 1 in the device TOC and it will take me to the Chapter 1 page. To get back to the Table of Contents page I can click on Contents in the device TOC.

I cannot figure out how to get the Contents title hyperlinked so it goes to the Table of Contents page. It seems that I should be able to do this since other ebooks have that functionality.

Any ideas on how?
