Download Trezor SuiteThis is the most critical step. The device will generate a **Recovery Seed** (24 words). Write these words down **physically** on the provided recovery card. **NEVER** store them digitally (photo, cloud, computer). Confirm the words only on the device screen.

Understand Seed SecurityYour PIN provides immediate physical protection. The PIN entry is obfuscated, requiring you to look at the Trezor screen and click the corresponding numbers on your computer screen. **Choose a unique PIN** that you can easily remember but is difficult to guess.

Read PIN GuideOnce your Trezor is set up, understanding advanced security features is paramount. **Never share your seed phrase** with anyone, including people claiming to be Trezor support. Your wallet's security is entirely dependent on your diligence.
**Security Tip:** Always double-check the recipient address on *both* your computer screen and the physical Trezor device screen before authorizing any transaction. This prevents man-in-the-middle attacks.
If you encounter any issues during the setup process, use only the official support channels. **Be vigilant against scams**—official support will never ask for your Recovery Seed or private keys.
