If you forget your PIN code
After three invalid attempts, the wallet will reset itself to factory condition, wiping your 24
words recovery phrase (see next section below). You will need to restore your wallet using
these 24 words recovery phrase.
Recovery Phrase
It is extremely important not to lose your recovery sheet: you must keep it in a very safe
location. If anyone gets access to it (and understands what it is), they can steal all your
cryptocurrencies (without the need for your PIN or security card, if you own a Nano/HW.1).
However, if you were to lose your recovery sheet, you need to immediately transfer your
entire balance to a temporary wallet. Then reset the Nano and create a new seed. Once
done, transfer back your balance to your Ledger Wallet.
