First you need to understand what usr is, so you don't use it wrong in a sentence. Read up on that byond bwiki page about usr. (I don't have the link handy right now)

For your problem, you would have to store the icon somewhere temporarily, then set it back by setting the object's icon back to the variable.

mob/proc
  switch_icon()
    var/temp = src.icon // hold the icon in a variable
    src.icon = 'newicon.dmi'
    spawn(40)
      src.icon = temp // revert the icon back
