During which manoeuvre does RCTA, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, monitor cross traffic behind the vehicle?

Correct answer

When reversing.

When reversing, for example out of a parking space. It warns of detected vehicles approaching laterally behind you. Capabilities and limitations depend on the model; some vehicles also provide automatic braking. It does not replace observation or guarantee detection of every obstacle.
