The dosimeter displays two numbers: the top number indicates the level of background radiation near the player, measured in Sv, mSv or µSv per hour, and the bottom number indicates the total radiation dose accumulated by the player, measured in Sv, mSv or µSv.

The player is warned by Heska Pavonen to keep their accumulated radiation dose below 1Sv which is a lethal dose of radiation. The player should consider leaving an irradiated area if their accumulated radiation dose approaches 700 - 800mSv and seek medical interventions immediately.
