How can I get my "downloads" button to turn into a "Timer", while a download occurs?

On the web page "where to find and manage downloaded files in Firefox, with the url:
https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/KB/where-find-and-manage-downloaded-files-Firefox#Firefox:WIN8:fx43
under the "Table of contents", the 1st question is: "How do I get my downloads? This section States the following: "during a download, the download button changes to a timer that shows the progress of your download. The timer changes into an arrow when your download is complete. »
As my downloads button remains static, I can't determine the download progress. How is - a encourages the downloads button for, in fact, turning a timer?

Thanks to those of you who have offered to help to solve my dilemma. Since my icon "Downloads" finally just disappeared, I ended up choosing the icon "Open Menu" on the far right of the address bar and then selected the menu item 'customize' at bottom left of the drop-down list of the info. I moved the icon "Downloads" from the available icons in the menu 'Customize' drop down icons available to the area to the right of the address bar between the 'Home' icon and the icon 'send '. Then I went downstairs to load a file & the "Downloads" icon in the icon changed "% ramp full." So, I'm good to go for now... Although I'm still a bit baffled by the strange behavior presented initially by arrow icon "Downloads" remains static during a download rather than change in the '% complete ramp' icon, as it does now...
