The invention relates to a method and a device (10) for transferring a motor vehicle from a manual operating mode into an automated or assisting operating mode for traversing a stored trajectory (2), comprising a memory (11) in which the trajectory (2) and a Tolerance range (3) of the trajectory (2) are stored, means (12) for locating the motor vehicle (1) relative to the stored trajectory (2) and a control unit (13), wherein the control unit (13) is designed such that upon fulfillment at least one predetermined criterion calculates a transition trajectory (4) from a current actual position to the stored trajectory (2) and generates a steering torque that steers the motor vehicle (1) in the direction of the calculated transition trajectory (4), wherein the at least one criterion is a distance threshold value to the stored trajectory (2), wherein the distance threshold value is selected such that this outside the tolerance range (3) is located.
