+We recommend that the Helm chart version is aligned to the version of the product
+you want to deploy. This will ensure that you using a chart version that has been
+tested against the corresponding production version.
+This will also ensure that the documentation and examples for the chart will work
+with the version of the product you are installing.
+
+For example if you want to deploy an Elasticsearch `7.7.1` cluster, use the
+corresponding `7.7.1` [tag][elasticsearch-771].
+
+The `master` version of these charts are intended to support the latest pre-release
+versions of our products, and therefore may or may not work with current released
+versions.
