    I think you misunderstood what he said.

    What the 'Winter' button does is force the transmission into 3rd although you are at a standstill. You pull away from the stop in 3rd gear. You do NOT start in 1st and shift upwards. Therefore, you can't 'do that yourself.'

    Forcing the transmission into 3rd from a stop decreases the tendency to spin the rear wheels on the ice or snow as you pull away. This therefore decreases the chance that you might lose control of the vehicle and allow it to slide sideways into a ditch....or into somone else at the traffic light.

    Think ice. Think snow. Think slippery. Think reduced torque. You'll figure it out.
