There are none. You can use the factory defaults or set it however you like. They assume the settings that come out of the box will be suitable for most folks. You can then adjust them to suit the room and your tastes, but there are no "recommended" settings.

For best results use an HDMI cable, then 3 color component video, then composite (standard) video, then the cable input in that order.
