Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You must have bought a used one. A new one has a sheet between the keyboard and monitor -- before disposing of it surely it can't be missed at the left corner in 1/8 inch tall letters that pressing the Fn key with the spacebar (the icon shown is at the left end of the spacebar) toggles the keyboard backlight modes. One of those modes (the default mode) is backlight off. The other two modes are backlight on (low and high intensity). When you change modes, an icon briefly appears on the screen to indicate the selected mode, which you should be able to confirm by viewing the keyboard. Also the brief get started guide indicates the Fn + spacebar purpose, as does the downloadable userguide PDF document.
