If something happens to your Lockbox or Ledger Nano (S) device, or you lose or forget your PIN code, you can always restore access to your funds with your 24-word recovery phrase.

Before you start

    • An internet connection

  3. When you see the prompt “Configure as new device?” press the left button located above the cancel icon.
