Carefully open your Trezor package and verify all contents are included.

Your box should contain: Trezor device, USB cable, recovery seed cards, and user manual.

Trezor Suite is your command center for managing your crypto safely.

Plug your Trezor into your computer using the provided USB cable.

Make sure to use the original cable for the best connection.

#4

Create Your Wallet

Follow the on-screen instructions to set up a new wallet with a PIN.
