I don't think the IIci has a power manager but any Mac with a PMU reset button does. I think in some later models, the button has a different name and I'm not sure what the purpose of that button is anymore once it has a different name.
From what I gather, the power manager is in charge of scheduled power ons and maybe wake-on-lan / administrator access related stuff.

Just to let you know and give you some encouragement, the IIci is super easy to recap should you decide go down that route. I'm really bad at soldering and stuff, but the IIci has only a few capacitors and they're all easy to get to. Compared to my LC, it was a joy to work on. 🙂

Bunsen is correct, by the way. Do not hold down the PMU/CUDA switch. You just press it once, and that's it. Straight from an Apple tech.

Well, that would be Dennis who is correct, and me who is incorrect.
