These chambers form the fourth level of the game, and take place within two separate dilapidated Test Chambers. The two Test Chambers introduce the concept of using multiple [[Weighted Storage Cube]]s in conjunction with intermediate [[Portals]], as well as utilising the [[Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device]] to obtain objects that would otherwise be inaccessible. These two Chambers correspond to Test Chambers [[Portal Test Chamber 04|04]] and [[Portal Test Chamber 05|05]] from the original [[Portal]]. {{Spoiler|Chamber 04 features a [[Doug Rattmann|Rat Man]] den, which is decorated with a number of his trademark murals.}}

== Hazards ==
* None

{{Spoiler|block=yes|
=== Chamber 03 ===
* When entering the chamber, observe the Weighted Storage Cube falling into the pit. Either fire a portal below the cube, or jump down and then fire a portal at a wall and then carry it through, to bring it to the upper level.
* Place the cube on the [[Heavy Duty Super-Colliding Super Button]]; proceed through the door into chamber 04.
=== Chamber 04 ===
* Observe the orange portal on the platform across the room; place a portal and walk on to said platform.
* Place a portal on the opposite platform; it is now possible to acquire the cube through the orange portal. Place the cube on one of the buttons by the door.
* Opposite the door will be a pit containing a cube; fire a portal below the cube at the bottom of the pit to place it on the platform with the orange portal. Follow the cube through this portal or through a new portal on your current tier, whichever is most convenient, and place the cube on the remaining button and walk through the door.
* Look up to observe an orange portal through the glass; place a portal on one of the surrounding walls and walk through it to land on top of the glass.
* Turn around and walk through the destroyed section of wall to reach the [[Chamberlock]]. Inside this wall section is a staircase that leads to a [[Doug Rattmann|Rat Man]] den.

== Trivia ==
*In Portal 1, these chambers are separated by an elevator, but in Portal 2, this is retconned to Chamber 4's entrance being merged with Chamber 3's exit.

This is the first level of the game and serves as both a tutorial and introduction. The first part of the level takes place within the interior of an [[Aperture Science]] Relaxation Chamber, and introduces the player to gameplay fundamentals such as looking with the mouse, moving and activating objects. {{Spoiler|The player is also introduced to both the [[Announcer]] and [[Wheatley]] at this time}}. The second part of the level provides a more detailed look at the Aperture Science facility while the player is transported to the first Test Chamber. The final part of the level takes place within a dilapidated Test Chamber, and introduces the player to [[Portals]], as well as the [[Weighted Storage Cube]] and the way in which it interacts with [[Heavy Duty Super-Colliding Super Button]]. When the first Test Chamber has been completed, the player will encounter the [[Emancipation Grill]] and exit through the [[Chamberlock]].

== Hazards ==
* None

== Walkthrough ==
{{Spoiler|block=yes|
* The [[Announcer]] will tell you to look up, look down, look at art, and return to your bed. Do these things.
* When awoken by the Announcer for the second time, walk towards the door to allow [[Wheatley]] to enter.
* Follow Wheatley's instructions and wait for him to transport the room to the 'Docking Station'.
* Jump down into the relaxation vault; wait for the Announcer to open the portal and then walk through it.
* Walk through the door, then place the [[Weighted Storage Cube]] onto the [[Heavy Duty Super-Colliding Super Button]] in order to open the exit door.
* Proceed through the [[Chamberlock]] and into the elevator.
