The message you quote is only a reminder that there is an abbreviated
form of the command which might be slightly more convenient to type.
"ico-f" is not really a command.

That being said, you have probably run across a bug in the iconification
process that manifests by wedging Emacs until, perhaps, an interruption
such as killing emacsclient creates.  Please upgrade to 29.2 and check
whether the problem continues to exist there.
