KVF 360 Squealing

I have a 2005 KVF 360 that I had serviced about a month ago. During the service they replaced the belt as the light was on. Ever since I brought it home it has been squealing. It only squeals when in forward or reverse at a stop. As soon as I apply the gas the squeal stops. When I called back they told me that is was common for the CVT transmissions to do this and that it would go away. Does this sound ok to everyone else? I would rather not take it back as I am about two hours from the nearest dealership.

give it some time for the belt to stop squealing, but if it gets worse or persists i would take it back.
