FAQs

What is the usable capacity of this appliance?

The Bosch CMA583MS0B has a usable cavity volume of 44 litres, making it suitable for a variety of dishes.

Can I use the microwave and oven functions simultaneously?

No, the appliance functions either as a microwave or a traditional oven at one time. However, it does offer combination programs that use both microwave power and oven heating (e.g., grill) sequentially or in conjunction to optimize cooking results.

How does the AutoPilot 15 feature work?

AutoPilot 15 provides 15 pre-set automatic programs. You select the program for your dish, enter the weight of the food, and the oven automatically calculates and sets the ideal cooking mode, temperature, and duration for perfect results.

Is special cleaning required for the interior?

The oven features an easy cleaning system. Simply place approximately 400ml of water and a drop of washing-up liquid in the base, set the bottom heat to 80°C for 4 minutes, and the softened residues can then be easily wiped away.

What are the niche dimensions for installation?

For proper built-in installation, your kitchen cabinet niche should measure H 450mm x W 560mm x D 550mm.

Does it come with a turntable?

Yes, the appliance includes a 36 cm metal turntable, along with one high grid and one flat grid.

Can I use metal trays in the microwave function?

No, metal trays or containers should not be used during microwave-only functions as they can cause arcing. However, metal can be used safely during conventional oven functions or specific combination modes where indicated in the manual.

Troubleshooting

Oven/Microwave not turning on or no display.

Check if the appliance is properly plugged into the power outlet. Ensure the circuit breaker or fuse box connected to the oven's circuit has not tripped. The control panel lock might be active; refer to the manual to deactivate it.

Uneven cooking or food not heating thoroughly.

Ensure the metal turntable is correctly positioned and rotating freely. For oven functions, check if you've selected the correct temperature and cooking mode (e.g., Hotair). For microwave, ensure appropriate power level is selected. Avoid overcrowding the cavity.

Oven is smoking or emitting unusual odors.

This often indicates food residue or spills burning inside the cavity. Allow the oven to cool, then thoroughly clean the interior using the easy cleaning system. If the issue persists after cleaning, consult the service manual or contact customer support.

AutoPilot 15 programs not working as expected.

Ensure you have accurately entered the weight of the food as prompted by the program. Verify that the correct AutoPilot program was selected for the type of dish you are preparing. Some programs require specific ovenware with a lid.
