Water Temperature Gauge
1972 USA Owners manual (Page 10 ... ):
If the pointer stays on the "H" side for more than two minutes, stop the vehicle and let the engine cool down, keeping it at 1,000 to 1,500 rpm.
"H" is past the large middle range (way over to right-side -- the H area).

Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge is part of the Cluster Gauge

The position of the pointer will vary slightly during acceleration, braking and when the car is going up or down a hill.

Ignition Switch
Also see: * Keys * Locks * Ignition Switch
1972 USA Owners manual (Page 11 ... ):
ignition switch ... is integrated with the steering lock device
...
The "ACC" (accessories) position of the switch permits you to use all of the electrical accessories.
1974 Export B120 Owners manual
Page 09 Page 10
(Optional)
ignition switch ... is integrated with the steering lock device
...
The key can be inserted or withdrawn only when the switch is in the "GARAGE" or "LOCK" position. In the "GARAGE" position, however, the steering is not locked.
(3-position)
The "ON" position allows you to turn on the ignition system as well as all the other electrical circuits.
No mention is made of what the OFF position is for. Presumably its use is the same as the "GARAGE" position.
Notice that the standard 3-position type does not have an "ACC" position.
5-position switch vs 4-position switch:
Note addition of ACC position, which power Radio & Rear Defroster

Light Switch
1972 USA Owners manual (Page 12 ... ):
When you pull the switch knob to the first of two positions, parking lights, taillights, license plate lights and instrument panel lights are turned on.
At the second position, the parking lights are still on and the headlight beams are lit, then if you push the turn signal lever switch forward, the headlight high beams will be turned on ... Pull the lever toward you, and it will be changed over to low beam.
The key takeaway here is that:
- Knob in the 1st Position, NO HEADLIGHTS for US models
- Knob in the 1st Position, LOW BEAMS work for other countries, including Japan-market
1974 B120 Owner's Manual (Page 10 ... 11)
