What is this on my freezer?

[JoeSTL]

So I just bought a GE 7.0 cu ft chest freezer recently, and will be turning it into a keezer. Tonight I was taping it up, with plans to paint it black over the weekend. As I was removing some of the stickers I saw this right above the vents. It was covered with a round white sticker, which I removed, then cleaned up with some goo gone. What is the purpose of this? Why was it covered with a blank white sticker? Can I paint it? Thanks for any help!

Pull the five screws holding the vent plate on and take a look. Doesn't look like anything but a knock out slug for letting something like a cord come out if wanted.

Could be wrong but remove the panel and see.

HTH

Actually the cooler floor is right above the vent. The hole was probably for a cord or something for an earlier model that they didn't change, so they covered it up with a white sticker. I'm just going to paint over it! lol

It's an antenna cover disc.....

That's where the elves crawl in at night and cobble the shoes from the basic materials. Duh. How do you not know this?!

Mine was partly pulled off on mine. I think it is where they pump foam in. I may stand corrected. It's in the same spot and simular looking.
