Climb on top and look behind it to see what is there.
It **should** have a flexible gas connector that will allow the range to be pulled away from the wall.

If it doesn't have one of these, or you can't see it...
invite the handy neighbor over to help

Some ovens have a bracket in back attached to the wall, to keep if from falling forward when the oven door is opened, should someone put too much weight on it. You should be able to see it if you look behind the oven, and your owner's manual should tell you how to disconnect it.

Try the manufacturers website and see if you can find the installation manual for it.

Besides looking behind it to make sure you have a flexible gas hose that will let you slide it out, you ned to get down on the floor and look under the stove. Being able to pull it out can be smple if the "feet" are the type and on a surface that lets it slide. If there is anything to prevent the stove from sliding. you may need help over that hurdle. Most can slide with a bit of wiggling so long as the gas hose comes out with it. before moving any gas stove, know where the main gas shut-off is located and how to turn it off, just in case!
