Hi,
How about a headline like
"The Suicide Settings"
and under that text something like
"That's right. Be warned, this setting is SERIOUSLY HAZARDOUS. If you don't
do this EXACTLY the way the manual says, you may lose your (whatever), your
job, and the past three years of work for your entire company. But certain
critical situations may require you to do this. Here's how, step by step.
Cheers
