Welcome to the forum.  As for backing up find a nice open area and use some cones or something to practice.  It doesn't take long to get the basics.

Happy Podding

If you've ever operated a pallet jack, you might want to think of backing the trailer up like you would push a pallet jack. Might sound silly, but it helps me (probably because I use a pallet jack almost every day at work).

Hey, I need as much practice as anyone else, but this YouTube video did give me "the scoop" on backing into a spot.  Enjoy!

Can you ask your dealer to do it for you before you pick up your rpod?

Hugo, welcome to the forum.  You're going to love your Pod.  Backing up will take some practice, but you'll get used to it in time.  

Votre anglais est très bon.  Big smile
