How do I turn the thing on? I put the battery in and I twisted the "bottom" but, nothing happens!!

You do twist the bottom to the right as you hold it with the head up. When it is new, you may have to use more force than you think. Try it again and, as long as the battery is in correctly, you should achieve success.

Check the batteries first and then if it still won't turn on contact Remington or Amazon to return it and get your money back.

See if there is a plastic tab that is preventing he battery from making contact. If it has one you may have to pull it out. If it's not that then it's just because the unit is likely defective. It's a super cheaply made unit.

How do you open the battery compartment? I replaced the battery once, but this time I cannot open the compartment.

Try flipping the battery over! I had mine in upside down! Otherwise call the company. My sister got a replacement remote for a different product from them.

I forgot. I had bought it for my grandmother, and she had turned it on. Maybe there is a small button on it somewhere or a small hole, like it is with certain kinds of electronics. If there is the small hole, you probably can get a small piece of wooden object, stick it in there for a few seconds, and it should turn on. I hope that answers your question.

We just had a similar incident with one of ours. we just let it run itself down till there was NO battery life left. I almost threw it out because I thought it was broken! I decided to charge it one more time to see if I could get it to work and it had reset itself and came on and worked properly. just let it go till it is dead dead dead and then try recharging it and see if that works

Make sure you charge it and also turn it on. The button on the bottom turns it on.

The charging light in mine actually didn't work, so I tried turn it. Since in had a battery in it I cound send it through the mail. I contacted AMAZON and they sent me a new. The new one works perfect....

Im sorry... No suggestions... That sadly is exactly what happened with me. I just threw it away after about a week of it not turning on showing any motion with the lights. Maybe flip the black switch on the bottom and it may work.

Dead battery? Get a jump! haha Seriously now.Are you sure its the battery? Does it work when its plugged in? As soon as you unplug,does it stop working? If that's the case,I'd take it in to a computer shop to get looked at.Is it still under warranty,& if that's the case,send it in.I haven't looked at my own manual,but can you change the battery yourself? I'd see if I could do it first myself,instead of paying omeone for something you might be able to do yourself.

This was not to easy .. As you are looking at display , turn 180 so you are looking at the back.. Squeeze the sides and pull.. Mine was very, very tight... Once that slides out you can see and change the battery...

I tried just about everything and had the same problem, couldn't turn it on. changed batteries to make sure I wasn't missing anything and nothing! All I can suggest is, return it and get your money back! I would had done that but my was out of the country!

Turn it upside down and unscrew bottom. If it already has batteries in it, it is best to hold it at about a 45°angle and twist off. Make sure you only fill to marked circle inside otherwise the battery compartment won't twist back in.

Make sure the battery is connected properly in the back. Make sure the battery is also charged. And press the button on the battery pack in the back to turn it on

I thought ours wouldn't turn on unless plugged into the charger, but I eventually figured out that you need to hold down the top and bottom buttons at the same time to turn it on. The instructions don't tell you that.

I just push the on button and it comes on. Maybe yours is defective. I would contact seller.
