Pause or cancel only through the model's safe documented controls and check what treatment the items permit. Do not force a locked or hot door to remove them immediately.
Understanding this situation
A continuous programme can start drying without another prompt, so sorting mistakes need to be prevented before the wash begins. Items requiring line drying, electronics or contaminated cloths may create different concerns.
A useful next step
Follow the manual's safe interruption guidance and allow required cooling. If there is smoke, melting or unusual heat, treat it as a safety event. Review the loading routine before the next cycle rather than relying on a timed reminder to interrupt every wash.
Manuals and supporting guidance
Model-specific instructions take priority. These references support the practical principles discussed here; they do not diagnose your appliance.
