dropped pizza in oven

Dropped pizza off shelf of a Beko oven yesterday and retrieved it intact.

However, oven will not light now. It's electric ignition gas Beko cooker. I would imagine there is melted cheese blocking something.

I'm going to attempt to thoroughly clean tomorrow, even though it means practically getting in oven. It's a low one, on kitchen floor and very difficult to get at.

Any advice on cleaning whatever is blocking oven from lighting????

Also, if I can't get it to ignite using electric ignition, how dangerous is it to light using a match? When pressing the ignition button and turning on oven dial, I can smell gas. It just doesnt ignite, more than likely due to this food blockage.

Is it recommended to light using a match or downright dangerous.

When I had a gas oven we would always light it with a match.
Use one of those long cooks matches if you can.
I don't know very much about cleaning ovens thoughBlush

If it says it is dangerous to use a match, then I wouldn't.
