What color on the ECAM indicates that the crew should be aware of a configuration or failure without the need for immediate action?

The correct answer is indicated by the color amber on the ECAM (Electronic Centralized Aircraft Monitor), which signifies caution. This color is used to alert the crew to a configuration or failure that requires their awareness but does not necessitate an immediate response. Amber alerts are important because they help maintain situational awareness without creating undue urgency, allowing the crew to assess the situation and prioritize actions as needed.

For example, if a system malfunction is indicated in amber, the crew knows that while the issue is significant, it is not critical and can be addressed in due course based on the flight's current status and safety considerations. This aids in effective decision-making and resource management during flight operations.
