The LG 4.5 Cu. Ft. High-Efficiency Stackable Smart Front Load Washer with Steam and Built-In Intelligence - White, Model # WM4000HWA, has drain holes (often referred to as weep holes) located at the bottom of the rubber door gasket (bellows) near the 6 o'clock position that are designed to allow trapped water and condensation to drain back into the tub so it doesn't accumulate. Proper drainage, along with wiping the seal, helps keep the gasket fresh. The holes can easily become clogged with hair, lint, or fabric softener residue. If you notice water pooling, the weep holes may be blocked. Gently inspect the lower folds of the rubber seal and use a pipe cleaner or cotton swab to clear any debris out of the drain holes LG highly recommends wiping the gasket dry after every load and leaving the door slightly ajar when not in use to allow the seal to dry completely...^Ivan.
