Due to its high sensitivity to changes in the magnetic field, the mine may be triggered by individuals, along with vehicles. If no target has been detected, the mine self-destructs after the completion of the self-liqudation period.

Fun fact: The PTM-3 produces shaped charge explosions on 5 of its 6 faces. All 4 sides and 1 of the ends.
