There should be a label on one of the front door  pillars that gives the pressure for a fully loaded vehicle. This has been the pressure I have used in the past when towing which usually required an increase all round. However, my 2015 model does not recommend any pressure change for a fully loaded vehicle.
Maybe RT can shed some light on the subject.

Perhaps the suspension changes and or tyres used on the MY15 need no adjustment, my FL2 doesn't need any pressure changes.
