The finishing sequence helps bring the laundry toward the condition intended for safe unloading. Switching the display off is not equivalent to completing it.
Understanding this situation
Clothes can retain heat, particularly after an interrupted drying stage. The correct emergency interruption response is model specific and should not be improvised by piling hot items into a basket.
A useful next step
Let safe normal programmes finish. If cancellation is necessary, follow the manual's specific guidance and relevant fire safety instructions. Never force a locked door or ignore abnormal heat merely because the active heating stage has stopped.
Manuals and supporting guidance
Model-specific instructions take priority. These references support the practical principles discussed here; they do not diagnose your appliance.
