How do you STOP the Find on page form field from automatically searching the moment you type a letter?

I can be wanting to search a page which could be VERY long and perhaps realize that the letter I typed was wrong or type the word AS FAST AS I CAN before it searches only to realize I MISSTYPED the word.. Now having to wait the 10-20seconds for it to finish scanning the page for my MISTYPED word.

I just want to be able to type in what I want and CLICK SEARCH.

Note: I'm using Firefox 29.0 (Beta) and this is CTRL-F (not the autofill for URL searching) Thanks

I APPEARS that it is a BUG that is defaulted to ON no matter if "Search for text while I start Typing" is OFF or NOT..

I've toggled it both OFF and ON; it was OFF the entire time and there is absolutely no change so the option seems to be defaulted to ON.
