Trezor.io/Start® — Starting Up Your Device

1

Unbox & inspect

Confirm tamper-evident seals are intact and compare the device against official images at trezor.io/start.

2

Connect to computer

Use the supplied USB cable, then open the browser and visit trezor.io/start to launch the onboarding flow.

3

Install firmware & apps

Follow on-screen instructions to update firmware and install supported coin apps. Never use unknown third-party firmware.

4

Create a new wallet

Generate a new seed on the device (never on a connected computer). Write the recovery seed on the supplied card and store offline.

Layout — Two column learning panel

This left/right split uses a content-first column and an actionable side panel for quick reference. Great for step-by-step onboarding and printable guides.

> Example: connect > verify > backup
