This presentation walks you through the essential steps for powering on and securing your Trezor hardware wallet using the official onboarding hub at Trezor.io/Start. You will learn how to verify your device, install Trezor Suite, create a wallet, back up your recovery seed, and practice safe sending and receiving. Throughout, you’ll find bold, color‑coded callouts and clearly labeled sections using H1 through H5 headings.
Using the official portal consolidates firmware checks, the download of Trezor Suite, and authentic instructions that match your model. It minimizes phishing risk and prevents counterfeit software. Bookmark Trezor.io/Start and use it every time you set up or troubleshoot.
Initial setup typically takes 10–20 minutes, with extra time for carefully writing and verifying your recovery seed. Don’t rush the backup.
Check seals, packaging, and the device screen. If anything looks tampered with, stop and contact support via the pages linked at Trezor.io/Start.
Use the included cable to connect your Trezor to your computer. Then navigate directly to Trezor.io/Start to detect your model and begin.
Download Trezor Suite (desktop is recommended) from links surfaced at Trezor.io/Start. Open the installer, follow prompts, and launch Suite.
Suite will prompt you to install or update device firmware. Confirm on the device screen. Keep your device connected and do not disconnect until it completes.
Choose Create new wallet in Suite and confirm on your Trezor. This initializes a secure seed that only your device knows.
Write down the words shown on your device screen, in order, on the provided cards. Never photograph, copy/paste, or store the seed online. Verify word order when asked.
Create a PIN you can remember but others can’t guess. For advanced protection, enable passphrase (a secret added to your seed) inside Suite’s settings.
In Suite, add the accounts you plan to use (e.g., BTC, ETH). To receive, generate an address and verify it on your device screen before sharing.
When sending, compare the destination address on the computer with the one on your device. Approve only if they match. Start with a small amount to test.
Practice how you would recover your wallet on a spare device or a safe test environment. The recovery steps are always linked via Trezor.io/Start.
Malware can change addresses on a computer screen. The device screen is your source of truth. If it doesn’t match, cancel the transaction immediately.
Handwritten backups stored in separate, secure places are safer than digital copies. Consider a metal backup for fire/water resistance.
Support, firmware notes, and downloads are accessible from the trusted hub: Trezor.io/Start. Bookmark it.
No legitimate support will ever ask for your seed or to type it into a website. If in doubt, close the chat and re‑start from the official link.
Try a different USB cable/port, close other wallet apps, and restart Suite. Driver prompts are normal on first connection. Re‑open via Trezor.io/Start.
Keep the device connected and let the process finish. If it repeats, disconnect, reboot your computer, and start again from the official hub.
Words must be in the original order. If you’re unsure, stop and read the backup section linked inside Trezor.io/Start.
Cancel immediately. Disconnect, reboot, and scan your system. Only resume when on‑device and on‑screen addresses match exactly.
