    Which specific P446 model do you have? Some have backlit keyboards and some do not.

    So you should be able to press and hold the Fn key and press F9 to toggle the backlight on. If that doesn't work try it without the Fn key. If you don't get the backlight with either combination then it's time to contact Acer support or return the laptop to your vendor for a swap. Once the backlight is toggled it should turn on with any keypress and turn off again after a timeout with no keys pressed.

    Do you have the backlight symbol on that key? If not maybe yours is one of the models without a backlit keyboard...
