Why doesn't setBounds take into account maximum zoom and padding?

Question

Yandex maps

When creating a map, I specify the maximum zoom as follows:

APP.controller.map.map = new ymaps.Map(self.$$o.map.attr('id'), {
            center: [55.76, 37.64],
            zoom: 7,
            maxZoom: 12
        });

and immediately set the default indents:

APP.controller.map.map.margin.setDefaultMargin([0,600,0,0]);

margin.getOffset() returns [-300, 0] (btw why not 600?)
margin.getMargin() - [0, 600, 0, 0]
But when I do map.setBounds(map.geoObjects.getBounds()) ; neither padding nor zoom are taken into account.
I struggle with zoom like this: if (map.getZoom() > 16) map.setZoom(16);// maximum zoom
And I don't know what to do with indents.
Where to dig?
