If an oven is a stand-alone unit it also cannot be pulled out to be cleaned. This is for customers and operatives safety, so please refrain from requesting the operative to facilitate moving of such appliances. Only internal parts from the appliance, such as stainless steel, racking, shelving, side plates, top plates, oven bulbs covers etc can be removed to enable access to internal areas of an appliance for cleaning.
