If you configured your device as a new one, you can backup your seed by pressing the “Create a backup” option in the hardware wallet options window:

//The image should have an arrow poiting to the buttom or something similar//

After reading and accepting a warning message, the hardware wallet starts showing the words of the seed, in order, so that you can copy them:

After showing all the words, the hardware wallet will show them again, so you can verify the seed you copied and then confirm the operation.

WARNING: make sure to copy the seed and keep it in a safe place. If something happens to the hardware wallet and you don’t have the see YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RECOVER YOUR FUNDS.

WARNING: AFTER THE OPERATION IS CONFIRMED IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO BACK UP THE SEED AGAIN.

WARNING: make sure to follow the recomendations of the Optimize account security section of this manual.
