He did not believe that the autopilot or autothrottle systems had disconnected and the airplane continued to pitch up and slow down. He also attempted to disconnect the autothrottle system using the button mounted on the center console. The pilot first attempted to disconnect the autopilot using a press and release of the yoke mounted autopilot disconnect button, followed by pressing and holding the button. The pitch up and reduction of engine power were not commanded by the pilot.
