I eventually found it by accident by using different key combinations and later Wahoo Support verified it as follows, in case it's helpful for anyone else.

--> Wahoo Elemnt Bolt "Forced or Hard Reset" <--: Press the front, lower right hand corner button + the Power button on the Left side of the unit for 10 seconds.

--> Wahoo Support advises not to use the Hard Reset except as a last resort.
--> NOTE: You should not lose your screen setup or customizations with a Hard Reset (that was my experience at least - "your mileage may vary").

Cheers,

Akod
Since other like me might misconstrue the directions, you might want to post this on the Wahoo Google forum, so that others equally as confused as I was, would gain from your experience.

Cheers Back !
