The battery compartment can be found on the back of the unit directly underneath the numerical keypad. Slide off the plastic cover to expose the battery compartment.

Once the batteries have been installed and the cover has been securely put back into place press any one of the 15 buttons (keys) on the keypad briefly. A red LED just below the transmit symbol on the front panel should light during the button press to indicate the unit has power. The IR-DX1 remote control handset is now ready for use.
