Alert Messages
Alert messages call the reader’s attention to information that is especially
important or that has a unique relationship to the main text or graphic.

might point out exceptions to rules or procedures. A note usually, but
not always, follows the information to which it pertains.
CAUTION:
A caution informs the reader of conditions that might result in damage to
hardware, corruption of data, corruption of application software, or long-
term health problems in people. A caution always precedes the
information to which it pertains.
WARNING:
A warning alerts the reader to conditions that might result in injury or
death. A warning always precedes the information to which it pertains.
