Default How to restart DS?

I flashed a UOT tweak that didn't go well. The DS is hanging on the bootscreen.
I made a backup, so I'd like to restore that.

However, I don't want to pull the battery if I can prevent it.
Is there a key combination to restart the DS?

[edit]
I can reboot using volume + , volume -, powerbutton holding...
But after that I can't get into recovery. Holding volume - , powerbutton right after that does not get me into recovery.

Any ideas?

If you can use the three key combination you can pull the battery out in that short period of time when the phone is out. Leave the battery out for a while and then put it back in. Then use volume down and power.

Try eyahl's method first though.

From everything I've read, the problem isn't actually caused by pulling the battery - but by reinserting it quickly afterwards. If you do this then there is still latent charge around and that is when the damage actually occurs.
Having said that, it's obviously always better to not just pull the power on any electrical device if you can avoid doing so.
