It does look like there is an annotator destroy method: 
https://github.com/berkmancenter/h2o/blob/master/public/javascripts/annotator-full.js#L979, 
in which case I would store your annotations before using this method 
and reload them upon clicking the "on" button. Of course this is just 
what I would do (untested), and my use case was a bit different.
