Here is the Service Manual:
The Manual covers several models, some of which have DDR3 memory and some DDR4.
Memory module PC3L, 12800, 1600-MHz For use in models with AMD A8, A6, E2 processors ● 8-GB 693374-005 ● 4 GB 691740-005
You have an A6 processor so you use the above memory type...DDR3L and you can have up to 2 x 8 gig modules for a total of 16 gigs. The memory slots are designed to be accessed only by authorized service providers and you do risk the warranty by removing the back cover, but it is not terribly difficult. See page 46 for how-to.
Assuming you just want to add a second 4 gig module here is the product you would need:
