Connect your Trezor to your computer using the USB cable. Visit Trezor.io/start and select your device model (Trezor One or Trezor Model T). Follow the on-screen instructions to install the Trezor Bridge, which facilitates communication between your Trezor and the computer.
The first time you connect your Trezor, you will need to install the latest firmware. Follow the prompts to download and install the firmware. This step ensures your device is up-to-date with the latest security enhancements.
After the firmware installation, you will be prompted to create a new wallet. Click "Create new wallet" and follow the instructions. During this process, you will generate a recovery seed.
Your recovery seed is a critical component of your Trezor wallet. It consists of 12, 18, or 24 words, depending on your device model. Write down these words on the provided recovery seed card and store it in a safe, offline location. Never share your recovery seed with anyone or store it digitally.
To add an extra layer of security, set up a PIN for your Trezor device. Choose a PIN that is difficult to guess but easy for you to remember.
With your wallet set up and your recovery seed safely stored, you are now ready to use your Trezor. You can send, receive, and manage your cryptocurrencies securely. Access the Trezor Wallet interface through wallet.trezor.io to start managing your assets.
