I don't think it has backlit keyboard. It ONLY has Full-size island-style keyboard with numeric keypad.

 

But please check all keys on the top few rows. Does it have a key with backlit icon/symbol ?

(a) If yes, please use that key

(b) If no, your machine does not have backlit keyboard as mentioned above.

The f5 key is blank and I can't turn it on although it was advertised to me with a lightning keyboard .
