Hi,
The specs clearly says:
HP Premium Keyboard The HP spill-resistant keyboard is designed using a thin layer of Mylar film under the keyboard. The 101/102-key compatible keyboard features a full-pitch key layout with desktop keyboard features, such as editing keys, both left and right control and alt keys, and function keys. US and International key layouts are available.
- NOTE 1: Includes a separate numeric keypad (HP ProBook 450 and 470 only.)
- NOTE 2: Backlit keyboard available as an option.
Does your f5 key has a symbol like this ? if not then your machine does NOT have backlit keyboard.
Regards,

Hi,
As mentioned above
NOTE 2: Backlit keyboard available as an option.
You have to ask vendor to include. Too late now, you can't change this without costing heaps.
Regards.
