For example if you set the deviation to 30% and your projected release date is 4/02/2018 and your team is moving faster by 30% than it has been estimated then your release date should be 2/04/2018. If you allow your team to be 30% behind the schedule, your release date will be 5/28/2018. As long as a team is within the deviation norm, the team progress is considered to be on track, and you do not get warnings every time when the actuals line is below the estimates.

Everything below the Deviation (late) line is considered to be in danger zone as this means that the work is behind the plan for more than an established deviation normyou can allow for. The danger zone is marked as a transparent red area below the Deviation (late) line. Thus, the main thing is not to let the actuals line get into the danger zone.
