Zusammenfassung:	A self-service terminal (10) having an improved user interface (16) is described. The user interface (16) comprises a plurality of user interface elements (18,20,22,24,26,28,29). At least one of the user interface elements has means (60) for detecting a user's hand in the vicinity of that element, and means (42,29) for informing the user about that element. The detecting means (60) may comprise a proximity sensor. The informing means (42,29) may comprise a controller (42) executing a control program (52) that detects which user interface element the user's hand (32b) is in the vicinity of, selects an audio file associated with that element, and plays the audio file to the user (32) via a loudspeaker (29) in the user interface (16).
