     Exception raised when attempting to use an invalid index key.
 
+    This exception is triggered when a user attempts to access or manipulate
+    data in a pandas DataFrame or Series using an index key that is not valid
+    for the given object. This may occur in cases such as using a malformed
+    slice, a mismatched key for a ``MultiIndex``, or attempting to access an index
+    element that does not exist.

     Examples
     --------
