I want to  upgrade my notebook (see specifications) with Crucial 16GB DDR4-3200 .Is that possible?

Unfortunately what you want to do is impossible for two reasons:

1.  The notebook only supports DDR3L-1600 memory.

DDR4 memory runs at a lower voltage, has a different number of contact pins, and the slot in the memory board is cut in a different place than it is in a DDR3L memory chip, making it physically impossible to install a DDR4 memory chip in a DDR3 memory slot.

2. The maximum memory you can install is 2 x 8 GB.

Below is the link to the service manual...the 4 GB + 8 GB maximum memory limit is incorrect.

Thanks  for your replay.

Is the solution then There's a 4GB available , can I add in this case 8GB to make the notebook faster?

You're very welcome.

Yes, you can add an 8 GB DDR3L-1600 memory chip in the empty slot.

This should be a compatible 8 GB memory chip:
