unalarming
Causing no concern
Not causing worry or concern; reassuring in its ordinariness.
Something unalarming fails to trigger the anxiety you might have expected: The doctor said the test results were unalarming.
The word often appears when someone wants to downplay potential concern: an unalarming mole, unalarming levels of radiation.
