Welcome to Trezor®

Congratulations on purchasing your new Trezor® device! You're taking the first steps toward securing your digital assets with industry-leading cold storage technology. This guide will walk you through everything you need to set up your Trezor® device properly — from unboxing to first transaction.

Trezor® hardware wallets are designed to offer maximum security for your cryptocurrencies while keeping usability intuitive. With your Trezor® Model One or Model T, your private keys never leave the device, keeping you safe from online threats like phishing, malware, and hackers.

1. Unboxing Your Device

Ensure the tamper-proof seal is intact on the Trezor® box. If you notice any signs of tampering, do not use the device and contact Trezor Support immediately.

Inside the box, you’ll find:

• Trezor® Device
• USB cable
• Recovery seed cards
• Getting started guide
• Stickers

2. Visit Trezor.io/Start®

Open your browser and go to https://trezor.io/start. This is the official onboarding page where you'll:

1. Download and install Trezor Suite® (desktop or browser version)
2. Connect your device via USB
3. Install the latest firmware

3. Initialize Your Wallet

Once your device is connected, follow the on-screen instructions to create a new wallet. You will be prompted to write down your 12, 18, or 24-word recovery seed. Never share this seed with anyone and never enter it into any computer or website.

Tips for storing your recovery seed:

• Write it clearly on the recovery seed card provided
• Store it in a fireproof and waterproof place
• Consider using a metal backup like Cryptosteel

4. Using Trezor Suite®

Trezor Suite® is your secure interface for managing crypto assets. It allows you to:

• Send and receive over 1000+ cryptocurrencies
• Check real-time market data
• Exchange crypto with built-in swaps
• Set custom transaction fees

Trezor Suite® is available for Windows, macOS, Linux, and web. Regular updates ensure the latest security patches and new features.

5. Stay Safe

Security is not a one-time action — it's a mindset. Trezor® helps you protect your digital future, but it's essential you follow good practices:

• Never share your recovery seed or PIN
• Verify all transaction details on your device screen
• Enable passphrase encryption for added protection
• Beware of phishing websites and fake apps
