This original category diagram is an orientation aid, not a picture of your exact trim. Use the written labels and your vehicle manual to identify the real control.
Step by step.
- 01
Start the Acadia, shift to Park and open Settings > Vehicle > Teen Driver on the infotainment screen.
- 02
Create and confirm a four-digit PIN, then enter it to open the protected setup controls.
- 03
Place the remote key you want to register in the vehicle's transmitter pocket, even if a different key started the vehicle.
- 04
Select Setup Keys or Add/Remove Teen Driver Keys, choose Add and wait for the confirmation message.
- 05
After a trip with that key, return to Teen Driver and open the Report Card to review the recorded driving events.
Important limits
- If a Teen Driver key and a non-Teen Driver key are both present at startup, the vehicle recognizes the non-Teen key and restrictions do not activate.
- The vehicle owner must obtain the driver's consent before using the Report Card to record driving data.
Quick checks.
- ✓If Add is not offered, the key may already be registered; the menu will show Remove instead.
- ✓If the PIN is forgotten, the official manual directs the owner to a dealer for reset.
