to the left of the steering column on our MH there is a rocker switch looks a bit like a heated rear window symbol, I think a red light comes on the switch when on

On mine (2002 Rapido on 316), this switch operates the heated mirrors.
I have a rest button on my 616CDI merc hymer. I have also found a totally flat battery, but they were not related. As has been said the rest fuction switches off automatically after a period although it can be restarted if there is still heat left in the block.
I found from a fellow owner the reason for the flat battery. I had been using the fog lights, now they go off when you switch off the ignition BUT crucially the warning light to say that they are on does not. It is the brighter than usual illumination of the odometer that will stay on until the battery runs flat (less than 3 days in my case). Design fault or not I don't know but now I always double check after using the fogs, BEWARE

I discovered the other day that Id left the front fog light switch on after driving to the MOT in early morning fog. The binnacle milometer/clock display illumination did not go off 20 seconds after removal of the ignition key as it usually did. Fortunately Lynda noticed in the evening that the binnacle display was still illuminated so I contacted the Merc Garage.
The Merc Dealer told me that if the van conversion had been with front driver and passenger doors (it has neither only the hab door) then a buzzer would have alerted me that the fog switch was left on - this warning obviously not available due to having no front doors. Fortunately we spotted the issue before the battery went flat.
