I am very grateful for the advice about this. I shall now look out for the appropriate number foot pedal and in the meantime I will continue turning the handwheel to position the needle down.
I have become quite adept at stopping my machines with the needle down, including the treadles, so it is counter intuitive to have the needle whipped into the up position every time I stop sewing. I am sure Bernina thought this would be helpful when they decided to add this feature but I can't fathom how!

I've been casually shopping for a 930 (or a 910 or 920) and I found this information online:
"If you want the "heel tap, needle up & down" feature, make sure its serial number starts with 24 or 25. Early Bernina 930s do not have any of the heel tap electronics, or the necessary pedal."
