1. Plug in Kobo eReader to computer

2. Kobo display language selection screen. Select [your language]

3. Set Date, Time and Time zone

4. Connect to wifi. Upon connection, Kobo will prompt to update ereader. When download completes, Kobo will restart and updates the eReader.

5. Sign in to Kobo. You can sign in to an existing Kobo account or create an account from Kobo eReader. If you do not have a Kobo account, I would say goto Kobo.com on your computer, create an account from your computer and then enter that account id (email address) on Kobo ereader

6. Kobo will sync the device and the Kobo account you entered. If you have purchased books from Kobo.com, those books will be loaded to Kobo ereader.

7. Once sync, setup for Kobo is done! Kobo eReader is ready for reading now.
Good description, but step 1 is only required if you want to charge your device via USB before setting up.
