   [REST guidelines](https://github.com/microsoft/api-guidelines/blob/vNext/azure/Guidelines.md) (estimated time: 4 hours).

+  I understand this is required before I can proceed to Step 2, "ARM Review", for this PR.
+
+### Breaking changes review (Step 1)
 
-### ARM API changes review
+- If the automation determines you have breaking changes, i.e. Step 1 from the diagram applies to you,
+  you must follow the [breaking changes process].  
+  **IMPORTANT** This applies even if:
+  - The tool fails while it shouldn't, e.g. due to runtime exception, or incorrect detection of breaking changes.
+  - You believe there is no need for you to request breaking change approval, for any reason. 
+    Such claims must be reviewed, and the process is the same.
 
-- If you want for the ARM team to review this PR, you must add the `ARMReview` label. 
-- The automation may automatically add the `ARMReview` label, if appropriate.  
-  If this happens, proceed according to guidance given in GitHub comments also added by the automation.
+### ARM API changes review (Step 2)
 
-### Breaking change review
+- If this PR is in purview of ARM review then automation will add the `ARMReview` label.
+- If you want to force ARM review, add the label yourself.
