Panasonic Corp's China unit will recall 365,574 refrigerators on the mainland due to faulty temperature control components, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine said Wednesday.

The recall involves 29 types of refrigerators in the B20 to B26 and C23 to C29 series which were manufactured between March 2007 and March 2009, the quality watchdog said.

Certain components can caused abnormal temperatures in freezers under high temperature or high humidity. In certain extreme conditions, some types of refrigerators can produce smoke or catch fire after operating under faulty conditions for a long time.

Panasonic said the company will offer free checks and repairs.
