Trezor.io/Start | Starting® Up® Your® Device® with handling

Welcome — what this page delivers

This presentation walks you through powering on your Trezor device, initializing securely, creating or recovering a wallet, and connecting to Trezor Suite. It focuses on clarity and safety — handy for blog posts, onboarding emails, or printable quick-start guides.

Before you begin (h3)

Unbox your Trezor and check the seal. Use a clean USB cable and a trusted computer. Never share your recovery seed. If anything looks tampered with, visit official support links below.

What you'll need (h4)

• Trezor device (Model One or Model Model T)
• USB cable and a computer
• Pen and paper for your recovery seed (or a metal backup)

Step-by-step setup (h3)

1. Visit https://trezor.io/start — follow the official onboarding.
2. Install Trezor Suite at https://suite.trezor.io or use the web instructions.
3. Connect your device — follow on-screen prompts to create a new wallet or recover an existing one.
4. Write down the recovery phrase exactly as shown — store it offline and secure.
5. Set a PIN on-device to protect against physical access attempts.

Quick tip (h5)

If you ever need to recover, use only your written recovery phrase; never enter it into a website or send it to anyone.

Connecting to wallets & apps (h3)

Trezor pairs with many wallets. For the smoothest experience use Trezor Suite. When connecting third-party apps, confirm the domain and verify interaction on your device screen before approving transactions.

Security checklist (h4)

• Always check the URL and SSL lock when using Trezor Suite or web integrations.
• Keep firmware up to date via Trezor Suite.
• Use a metal backup for long-term recovery storage if possible.

Troubleshooting & support (h3)

If the device doesn't respond, try a different USB cable or port. For firmware or setup errors, consult official help resources. Never trust unsolicited recovery requests via email or chat.
