I would say that according to the specs, that model does not have a backlit keyboard, or that feature would have been listed.

As you can see from this model for example, the backlight keyboard feature is listed in the specs.

Welcome to the HP Community --
The keyboard is optional on this series.
The fastest way to check your computer:
Lift the display lid (simply open the notebook) and look at the keyboard.
If the F5 key includes a "sunburst" keyboard icon, then Yes, the keyboard includes the backlit feature.
No icon on the key? Then No, the keyboard does not include a back light.
What else?
