A self-retracting device for a furniture part which can be extracted from a furniture carcass in an extraction direction by a telescopic drawer slide is provided. The self-retracting device comprises: a carriage slidably supported; a retraction spring loading the carriage into a basic position, the carriage being slidable, by being coupled to a driver; and a damping unit for damping the sliding movement of the carriage from a standby position into a basic position. The carriage is coupled to a movable part of the damping unit by way of an arm which can pivot relative to the carriage about a first pivot axis and relative to the damping unit about a second pivot axis. When the carriage is slidingly moved by the retraction spring over a retraction path, at least in an end portion of the retraction path, the arm is rotated about an axis perpendicular to the extraction direction.
