9800 Lock Mode Quick Activation
The manual is describing the quick activation for the KEYLOCK MODE...which is to hold the # key for 3 seconds. Because the only other way to set this is to wait at min 7 sec. What you are describing is also correct but it is for PHONE LOCK MODE, which completely blocks all users from making a call until a code is put in. The real difference is that keylock is unset by simply pushing the ok button, and its only on the front screen.
