How Electrolux Dryers Are Built

Common Electrolux Dryer Problems
- Dryer rattling, squeaking or vibrating. Electrolux says to check pockets for coins and fasten buckles, tighten a loose pedestal, and on new installs confirm shipping bolts are removed and the dryer is level. Source: Electrolux - Laundry Dryer Noises
