1. A method for use in a system in a vehicle, the system including at least one actuator for controllably moving at least one door of the vehicle, the method comprising:
- providing a selectable option to open the door;
controlling the actuator to move the door towards an open position in response to a selection of the option;
sensing any detectable object in a course of opening the door;
causing the actuator to stop movement of the door when a detectable object is sensed in the course of opening the door; and
providing, on a display, an indicator indicating a status of the door.
