after it hasn't been used in a while (like at the moment, when most drying is
done on the line).

Resetting the RCD is fine.

Any idea of the cause/solution, and safety issues?

Tripping at switchoff happens if the element (or other leaky bit) has its
neutral switched off before its live. Element is most likely - test its
insulation.

I'll take a look when I open it up - thanks.
