BT Cruiser Emergency start switch
We bought an 07 Gulf Stream BT Cruiser model 5211 on a chevy chassis yesterday from a man that has severe form of memory issues and couldn't remember what the emergency start switch was for. I presume...

It disconnects the house battery from the house and converter/charger. Do that whenever appropriate.
EXAMPLE: When I bought my RV, it came with a Magnajunk 7345 converter. Those are KNOWN to kill batteries. I would leave the RV not plugged in, and disconnect the battery with that switch to keep parasitic drains from running it down.
About 3 or 4 years after buying the RV, I replaced the 7345 with a PD4655V 3 stage converter. Those take good care of your batteries. Now, I leave the RV plugged in 24/365 and never turn that switch off. I let the PD4655V keep the batteries in top shape.
SO, my recommendation would depend on which converter you have.
