On the Reese web site for the new 16-18-25K elite fifth wheel hitch . It says to open jaws and back in to hitch with king pin 1/2 to 1 inch below level and have king pin plate slide up the hitch. When pin is latched jaws will close , pull test a little , put in lock pin and ready to go. The older models you can back in to with jaws closed. Hope this clears up a little confusion on the Reese hitch
Correct on the need to have the hitch in the open position when hitching. This is because it has a single jaw and would have no way to open it during the hitching process.
