Follow these instructions carefully to ensure your Trezor wallet is set up securely.
Remove your Trezor device from the packaging and check that the holographic seal is intact. Connect your Trezor to your computer using the provided USB cable.
Open your web browser and navigate to Trezor.io/Start. The website will automatically detect your Trezor model and provide the appropriate setup instructions.
Download and install Trezor Bridge, the communication tool that allows your browser to interact with the Trezor device. Follow the on-screen instructions for your operating system.
Follow the prompts to initialize your device. You'll be asked to install the latest firmware, which is essential for security and functionality.
This is the most critical step. Your device will generate a 12, 18, or 24-word recovery seed. Write these words down in the exact order on the provided recovery card and store it in a secure location. Never store this seed digitally.
Create a PIN code to prevent unauthorized physical access to your device. The PIN is entered using the randomized number matrix on your Trezor screen for added security.
Never share your recovery seed with anyone. Trezor will never ask for this information. If you lose your device, this seed is the only way to recover your funds.
