Power Shot SX280 won't turn on.

[Connie]

I was shooting some  photos when the change battery indicator came on.  I removed the battery and  recharged it along with a spare battery.  When I replace either one of the fully charged batteries in the camera, nothing happens.  The camera does not turn on. It is essentially "dead."  The lens remains open and extended. Please advise as to how this problem can be corrected.

Thanks.
