Towbar on F10 520d M-Sport - should it stick out when retracted?

I have a 2011 F10 520d M-Sport with the electric towbar. I find it much more useful than the manually-fitted one that I had in my previous E60 5-series.

However I've noticed that when fully retracted it is showing below the level of the bumper, and about 3 cm below the underbody of the car (see picture). I've extended and retracted it a number of times, and it always seems to end in this position. There are no inidications that it is not fully retracted (i.e. the little button to control it in the boot shows a green light, and the check control warnings are clear).

Is it supposed to stick out like this when retracted?
