Why does the Back-up Assistant in my BMW turn off automatically?

The system automatically cancels in situations such as the following:

▷ When the driver grasps the steering wheel or takes over steering.

▷ When shifting from reverse to another selector lever position.

▷ During activation or intervention by driver assistance systems.

▷ After an extended period of time when the vehicle is stationary.

▷ When exiting the stored lane when reversing, for instance with maximum steering wheel angle.

▷ When the view on the control display is overlaid with messages.

▷ In case of a slippery surface.

 ▷ When the vehicle is rolling, such as on a slope.

▷ In case of changed ambient conditions.

▷ If the vehicle speed exceeds approx. 6 mph/9 km/h.
