I do not have the tactical edition, so cannot verify it, but try if the following document helps locating the function, or setting up the hotkey:

Stealth Mode is different from the Kill Switch Feature:

Clearing User Data with the Kill Switch Feature

You can use the Kill Switch feature to quickly remove all saved user data and reset all settings on the device to factory default values.

Hold BACK·LAP and LIGHT.

TIP: You can press any button to cancel the Kill Switch feature during a 10-second countdown.

After 10 seconds, the device deletes all user-entered data.

I have the Instinct Tactical, but not the Solar edition - mine does not have the Kill Switch feature. This is not to say that the Solar version does not have this feature, but I can not find it mentioned in the Instinct Tactical Solar Owner's Manual.

If you do not have the Kill Switch feature, you can accomplish the same result with the following Menu tree:

MENU > Settings > System > Reset > Delete Data and Reset Settings
