Trezor.io/Start® — Starting™ Up Your Device

When you first unbox your Trezor® device, ensure the package is sealed. A genuine Trezor® comes with tamper-proof seals and includes:

• Trezor device
• USB cable
• Recovery seed card
• Quick start guide

Connect your device to your computer using the included USB cable. Visit trezor.io/start to begin the setup process.

The Trezor Suite is the official app for managing your crypto securely. You can install it on Windows, Mac, Linux, or mobile devices. Once installed:

• Open Trezor Suite.
• Select Initialize Trezor.
• Follow the on-screen instructions.

During initialization, you will be asked to:

• Set a PIN code.
• Create a new wallet or recover an existing one.

Tip: Choose a PIN that is easy for you to remember but hard for others to guess. Do not share it!

Your recovery seed is the most important security feature. It allows you to recover your wallet if the device is lost or stolen.

• Write down all 24 words on the recovery card.
• Store it in a secure location offline.
• Never take a photo of it or store it digitally.

Security is critical. Follow these best practices to keep your crypto safe:

• Always check your device's firmware is up-to-date.
• Only use official software from trezor.io.
• Beware of phishing attempts via email or fake websites.
• Never share your PIN or recovery seed with anyone.

For added security, Trezor allows a passphrase to protect your wallet. This acts as a 25th word on your recovery seed. Remember:

• Your passphrase must be memorized; it cannot be recovered if lost.
• Each passphrase creates a unique wallet.

Backing up your wallet is crucial. Follow these steps:

• Store your recovery seed in multiple secure locations.
• Use fireproof and waterproof storage if possible.
• Test recovery occasionally on a secondary device to ensure correctness.

Trezor supports multiple cryptocurrencies. You can:

• Create multiple accounts for different coins.
• Track balances and transactions through Trezor Suite.
• Send and receive crypto securely.

If your device doesn’t connect or shows errors, try these fixes:

• Reconnect the USB cable or try a different port.
• Restart your computer and Trezor Suite.
• Update firmware via Trezor Suite.
• Consult the Trezor support page for detailed help.
