Zusammenfassung:A refrigerator (10) comprises a cabinet (12) and a door (20a) operably connected to the cabinet (12). The door (20a) has a closed position (22) relative to the cabinet (12) and an opened position (26) relative to the cabinet (12). A liquid line (86) transports liquid from the cabinet (12) to the door (20a). A retractor (88) is operably coupled to the liquid line (86). The retractor (88) releases a released portion (90) of the liquid line (86) when the door (20a) moves from the closed position (22) to the opened position (26) and retracts the released portion (90) of the liquid line (86) when the door (20a) moves from the opened position (26) to the closed position (22). The liquid line (86) has an exposed portion (92) between the door (20a) and the retractor (88) when the door (20a) is in the closed position (22).
