In a control system for steering a combination with at least one electronic control unit, with a sensor apparatus for capturing the bend angle of the combination and with a display unit, the control unit has a memory region for storing a maximum reversible bend angle, a memory region for storing an upper bend angle change threshold value, and/or a memory region for storing a left hand bend angle range and a right hand bend angle range with reference to the zero line corresponding to a straight combination. A functional unit is designed to output a recommended action for moving forward on the display unit and/or for carrying out an autonomously executed forward movement, when the presence of at least one defined situation in relation to the values related to the bend angle stored in the memory region is ascertained through evaluation of the sensor apparatus.
