Cabinets not square or are built in too tight. Contact a cabinet maker to correct the problem.

Contact builder or installer to make appliance accessible.

Carpeting interferes with range. Provide sufficient space so range can be lifted over carpet.

Gas line is hard-plumbed. Have a flexible C.S.A international approved metal appliance connector installed.

Make sure cord/plug is tightly into outlet.
