Just tap the power button, or tap in the middle of the radio screen

Or press (not scroll) volume button on the steering wheel..

All this should have covered at handover of the vehicle, poor dealership performance.

^This.
When Mrs Seriously? bought her ST, she had a full walkround of the car and run through of most of the controls, especially the bits that were new to her, like the EHB and Autohold. The salesman even showed her how to pair her phone and set postcodes in the satnav.

Not really I just forgot as I was given so much information about the new systems and this is my first new car for over 12 years and at 72 getting a bit old to take all these new gizmos in after one consultation

Yes I was given a complete walkround and a very comprehensive instructions, but there is so much that's new to me on this car that I obviously did not take it all in in one go

Fair point - it's taken me ages to get a handle on all the tech in my new car and I have to say the owners manuals can be less than helpful at times.
Plus the fact I've got the attention span of a hyperactive Labrador puppy.

One thing I really miss is information about the infotainment system.
the manual does not cover all system menus.

Keep pressed the withe round power button for a few seconds, and it will power off the unit.

That only seems to mute the sound not turn the radio off

Are you confusing the infotainment system with a traditional radio perhaps? If so then the 'screen' cannot be turned off completely when the engine is running, to my knowledge, as it is the only way to assess and adjust most secondary vehicle functions.

I recall that there is a way to have it display a clock instead of the quick access panels but, like most this terribly designed interface, it's hard to use.

You may need new glasses

Hold down the button for a second or two.

But all that does is turn off the infotainment system screen, but my digital cockpit still shows that the radio is tuned into a station and I want to turn of the actual radio function rather than just mute the sound. see picture enclosed it show the radio tuned into Big FM

If you've used the radio directly before turning it off, it's not physically and actually possible to remove it from the screen. The only way to do so, is change the source of the audio e.g bluetooth, apple car play. Other wise it remains there (unless you then change the icon on the digital dash).

Probably your only option then is to set the media input to USB instead.
