Can't open battery compartment on a Sea Hunter Mk II

Hi,

I have a 6 month old Sea Hunter Mk II whose battery compartment lock won't open. I tried very hard to twist it but it won't budge. I never opened it before since buying it, so this might be the cause, but still, what can I do to loosen it, while taking into consideration the fact that it needs to be water sealed? Can I safely use WD-40?

Put it in extremely hot water and see if that helps.
