I want to know whether my laptop has a backlit keyboard and how do I turn it on.

I hate using my laptop in the dark and wanted to know whether my laptop has a backlit keyboard.

The "xxx" you left in the name of the computer is not a model name, "xxx" is simply a place holder.

The Backlit keyboard is offered on some models in this Series.

If your computer includes the backlit keyboard, find out how to switch it on:

User Guide

Pages 11-12

On this model, the "special key" for "backlit keyboard":

F5

or

FN key + F5

If your computer does not have a backlit keyboard, one can be added by replacing the keyboard / top on the computer.

The bad news, if it can be called that, is that the whole laptop must be disassembled to replace the keyboard / top (sold as a unit).  Depending on your skill level and commitment to the project, you might like to hire a licensed computer hardware technician to complete the task for you.
