English term or phrase: Warning

Hi all French speakers!

today's question is what term do you visualize on warning messages on a user interface, I mean the title of the warning window itself.
In English I can see warning...what a French would select between "Avertissement" or "Alerte" or "Alarme"?

Thank you very much.

Paola

warning attention !

Explanation:
As David H. points out, it depends entirely on how the term is being used; but this is a term I come across over and over again in things like user manuals, or on actual stickers on pieces of equipment.

OK, well in the light of your belated extra context, this obviously would no longer be applicabel.
But I'll leave my suggestion posted, as it might possibly be of help to future users.
