1. ADVERB

1) (in direct and indirect questions, reported speech)

When in direct and indirect questions as well as after expressions of (un)certainty and doubt (e.g. no sé) translates as cuándo (with an accent) and is used with the indicative: cuándo
when did it happen? — ¿cuándo ocurrió?

• he asked me when I had seen it — me preguntó cuándo lo había visto

I know when it happened — yo sé cuándo ocurrió

• he told me when the wedding would be — me dijo cuándo sería la boda

he told me when to come in — me indicó cuándo entrar
say when! (when serving food, drink) ¡dime cuánto! since when
since when do you like or have you liked Indian food? — ¿desde cuándo te gusta la comida india?
till when? ¿hasta cuándo?
2) (in exclamations) cuándo

when will we learn to keep our mouths shut! — ¡cuándo aprenderemos a callar la boca!

3) (in other statements)

1958: that's when I was born — 1958: (en) ese año nací yo

she told me about when she was in London — me contó lo que le pasó cuando estuvo en Londres

b) (relative use)
If when follows a noun (e.g. day, time) and defines the noun, translate using ( en) que not cuando:
(en) que
during the time when she lived abroad — durante el tiempo (en) que vivió en el extranjero

the year when you were born — el año (en) que naciste

she can't remember a time when she wasn't happy — no recuerda una época (en) que no fuese feliz

there are times when I wish I'd never met him — hay momentos en los que desearía no haberlo conocido nunca

c)
If the when clause following a noun provides additional information which does not define or restrict the noun - in English as in Spanish commas are obligatory here - translate using cuando:
cuando
some days, when we're very busy, we don't finish work till very late — algunos días, cuando tenemos mucho trabajo, no acabamos hasta muy tarde

2. CONJUNCTION

1) (=at, during or after the time that)
As a conjunction, when can be translated by cuando (without an accent) followed by either the indicative or the subjunctive. Use the indicative when talking about the past or making general statements about the present. Use the subjunctive when the action is or was in the future: cuando
when I came in — cuando entré

when the bridge is built — cuando se construya el puente

you can go when we have finished — puedes irte cuando hayamos terminado

he said he'd tell me when I was older — dijo que me lo diría cuando fuera mayor
If [when] + verb can be substituted by [on] + '-ing' in English and describes an action that takes place at the same time as another one or follows it very closely, you can use [al] + infinitive:
be careful when crossing or when you cross the road — ten cuidado al cruzar la calle

when he went out he saw it was raining — al salir vio que estaba lloviendo
