ABSTRACT:
In an electrically powered door actuating system of a motor vehicle with a slide door, there is employed a control unit for controlling a door actuating device of the slide door. The control unit is configured to carry out, under a condition wherein the door actuating device is controlled to move the door in a closing or opening direction upon manipulation of a door control switch means, controlling the door actuating device to move the door in an opposite direction upon detecting an obstacle by a contact type obstacle sensor, and controlling the door actuating device to temporarily stop the movement of the door upon detecting an obstacle by a non-contact type obstacle sensor; and under a condition wherein the temporary stop of the door is kept, controlling the door actuating device to continue the temporary stop of the door upon detecting an obstacle by the contact and non-contact type obstacle sensors, and controlling the door actuating device to move the door in the same direction as that in which the door moved before the temporary stop of the door upon detecting no obstacle by the contact and non-contact type obstacle sensors.
