It is generally not recommended to put damp clothing back into a dryer once it has stopped running. The reason for this is that the drying process requires heat to evaporate the moisture from the clothes. If you interrupt the drying cycle by opening the dryer door or stopping the machine, the heat dissipates, and the clothes begin to cool down.

When you put the damp clothing back into a cooled-down dryer, it will take longer for the dryer to reach the desired temperature again and resume drying effectively. Additionally, the clothes may become wrinkled or have an uneven drying result.

If you need to remove some clothes from the dryer before the cycle is complete, it's generally recommended to shake out the garments to minimize wrinkles and allow them to air dry or hang them up until you're ready to restart the dryer. Alternatively, you can consider adjusting the drying settings before starting the cycle to avoid the need to interrupt it.
