Correct answer

  • BEl alumbrado de posición y el de cruce.The position lights and dipped headlights.
Explanation

Dipped headlights must be used together with the position lights between sunset and sunrise on roads in built-up areas, travesías and well-lit roads outside built-up areas, and on poorly lit roads in built-up areas and travesías. Main beam is prohibited in built-up areas.
