There is a risk of electric shock.
Hot water hose is damaged
Check that the hot water hose is in good condition, without any obstructions or damage that could restrict the flow of water. In addition, examine its integrity, looking for any signs of corrosion, cracks, or deterioration that could compromise its effectiveness.
