It has to do with the transmission mission. The 'S' stands for standard, and the 'W' stands for winter. When you are in 'S' mode, the transmission starts out in 1st gear normally, but when you select 'W' mode, the transmission will start out in 2nd gear, to help reduce wheel slip on slippery surfaces.
