Check your belt it may be lose. A lose belt will cause a squealing noise and the machine spin slower or take time to come up to full speed.

This is typically something that a professional would need to diagnose. Possible causes could be unbalance drum, bearing, or pulley issue .

Hi. Pages 3 & 6 of the Use & Care Manual reads

CAUTION: Do not continue to use the dryer if you hear squeaking, grinding, rubbing or other unusual noises. This could be a sign of mechanical breakdown and lead to fire or serious injury. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
