chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire. To reduce the risk of fire due to contaminated loads, the final
part of the tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down period). Avoid stopping a tumble dryer before the end
of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.
