The S3 vault has three levels (see picture below), the top level, the middle level, and the bottom level. The different levels and sections within these levels are locked off by rad safety chains. Whenever a chain is unlocked, the area behind it needs to be checked and secured. When going around to the buttons, check the vault for other people, especially those working in areas not directly visible from where you stand. | The S3 vault has three levels (see picture below), the top level, the middle level, and the bottom level.
