Brand new remote not powering on

Hey everyone, I just got the remote. It looks amazing! It's a bit smaller than I had imagined, but I'm really excited to get it to work.

It just doesn't power on after inserting the batteries. I RTFM, but it seems to suggest that the remote just powers on itself after inserting the batteries.

Is there a trick to get it working or did I get a dud?

SOLVED

The batteries were inserted incorrectly.
