Hello moebro. Welcome to the Gas Appliances topic and the Do-It-Yourself Web Site.
Since your question has not yet been answered, hopefully by now you figured it out. If not, look for screws in the door jam, any that may be at the base of the front panel, etc. If there are no screws visible, then the top lid lifts up and there will be two screws along the inside top edges of the front panel.
The top lifts up when the two clips between the top lid and the front panel are pushed in wards. Clips are located about 3-4 in wards from the corners. Use an old credit card or very thin blade between the top lid and the front panel to depress those clips and release and separate the top lid from the front panel.
