No. I am talking about the three buttons on the third row down on my microwave. The first gives you 30 seconds of cooking. The second and third buttons add or subtract 30 seconds from your cooking time while the microwave is running with cooking already in progress. Those two buttons come in handy when you want to stop something early because it smells finished, or you want to add another 30 seconds to your time when it doesn't smell quite done.
