I just recieved my GemiBook Pro and it is advertised as having a backlit keyboard. Is there a way to turn it on? Mine is not lit. What to do?  
Thank You

Hello

You must have a shortcut on F5 in the keyboard to activate it. Either by holding Fn+F5 or directly F5 depending on how your Function buttons are configured.

I was told it should have come on automatically so return it.  
Thank you 🙏
