Correct answer

  • Acuando pueda deslumbrar a cualquier usuario de la vía.when you could dazzle any road user.

The rules say main beam must be switched off when it could dazzle other road users. This includes not only vehicles coming the other way, but also pedestrians, cyclists and vehicles going in the same direction. You must switch to dipped headlights to avoid danger and keep everyone safe.
