Step-by-Step: Setting Up Your Trezór® Device

1. Connect Your Device: Plug your Trezor® into your computer using the provided USB cable. Your device screen will light up.

2. Visit Trezor.io/Start®: Open your browser and navigate to https://trezor.io/start. This is the official onboarding portal.

3. Install Firmware: If prompted, install the latest firmware update. This ensures your device has the most recent security enhancements.

4. Create a New Wallet: Follow the on-screen steps to initialize your new wallet. Always choose to create a new wallet unless you are recovering an existing one.

5. Backup Your Recovery Seed: This is the most critical step. Your Trezor® will display a 12 or 24-word recovery seed. Write it down on paper — never store it digitally.

6. Confirm Your Seed: You will be asked to confirm the seed to ensure you wrote it correctly.

7. Set a PIN: Choose a secure PIN code for your device. This protects your Trezor® in case of physical theft.

8. Install Trezor Suite: Trezor Suite is the recommended app for managing your crypto. You can download it at suite.trezor.io.
