Step-by-Step Guide to Starting Your Device

1. Unbox and Connect

Unpack your device and connect it to your computer via USB. Once plugged in, your Trezor will prompt you to begin the setup process.

2. Visit Trezor.io/Start

Open your browser and go directly to trezor.io/start. Avoid using search engines to prevent phishing risks—always type the link manually or use your Trezor packaging QR code.

4. Update or Install Firmware

Your device may require a firmware installation or update. Always perform this step directly through the Trezor Suite to ensure authenticity.

5. Create Your Recovery Seed

During initialization, your Trezor will generate a 12, 18, or 24-word recovery seed phrase. Write this down carefully and store it offline in a secure location. This phrase is the only way to recover your wallet if the device is lost or damaged.

⚠️ Never share your recovery seed online. Trezor or any official partner will never ask for it.

6. Secure Your Device with a PIN & Passphrase

Next, set up a PIN code to prevent unauthorized access. For additional protection, enable the passphrase feature, available in both Trezor One and Trezor Model T.

7. Start Managing Crypto

Once your device is ready, you can transfer funds, manage tokens, and interact with supported blockchains directly via Trezor Suite.
