 This structure allows you to configure common parameters that influence the model's behavior, such as `temperature`, `max_tokens`,
 `timeout`, and more.
 
-There are two ways to apply these settings:
-1. Passing to `run{_sync,_stream}` functions via the `model_settings` argument. This allows for fine-tuning on a per-request basis.
-2. Setting during [`Agent`][pydantic_ai.agent.Agent] initialization via the `model_settings` argument. These settings will be applied by default to all subsequent run calls using said agent. However, `model_settings` provided during a specific run call will override the agent's default settings.
+There are three ways to apply these settings, with a clear precedence order:
+
+1. **Model-level defaults** - Set when creating a model instance via the `settings` parameter. These serve as the base defaults for that model.
+2. **Agent-level defaults** - Set during [`Agent`][pydantic_ai.agent.Agent] initialization via the `model_settings` argument. These override model defaults.
+3. **Run-time overrides** - Passed to `run{_sync,_stream}` functions via the `model_settings` argument. These have the highest priority and override both agent and model defaults.
+
+**Settings Precedence**: Run-time > Agent > Model
 
 For example, if you'd like to set the `temperature` setting to `0.0` to ensure less random behavior,
 you can do the following:
 
 ```py
 from pydantic_ai import Agent
+from pydantic_ai.models.openai import OpenAIModel
+from pydantic_ai.settings import ModelSettings
 
-agent = Agent('openai:gpt-4o')
+# 1. Model-level defaults
+model = OpenAIModel(
+    'gpt-4o',
+    settings=ModelSettings(temperature=0.8, max_tokens=500)  # Base defaults
+)
 
+# 2. Agent-level defaults (override model defaults)
+agent = Agent(model, model_settings=ModelSettings(temperature=0.5))
+
+# 3. Run-time overrides (highest priority)
 result_sync = agent.run_sync(
-    'What is the capital of Italy?', model_settings={'temperature': 0.0}
+    'What is the capital of Italy?',
+    model_settings=ModelSettings(temperature=0.0)  # Final temperature: 0.0
 )
 print(result_sync.output)
 #> Rome
 ```
 
+The final request uses `temperature=0.0` (run-time), `max_tokens=500` (from model), demonstrating how settings merge with run-time taking precedence.
+
+!!! note "Model Settings Support"
+    Model-level settings are supported by all concrete model implementations (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, etc.). Wrapper models like `FallbackModel`, `WrapperModel`, and `InstrumentedModel` don't have their own settings - they use the settings of their underlying models.
+
 ### Model specific settings
 
 If you wish to further customize model behavior, you can use a subclass of [`ModelSettings`][pydantic_ai.settings.ModelSettings], like [`GeminiModelSettings`][pydantic_ai.models.gemini.GeminiModelSettings], associated with your model of choice.

 !!! note
     Each model's options should be configured individually. For example, `base_url`, `api_key`, and custom clients should be set on each model itself, not on the `FallbackModel`.
 
+### Per-Model Settings
+
+You can configure different `ModelSettings` for each model in a fallback chain by passing the `settings` parameter when creating each model. This is particularly useful when different providers have different optimal configurations:
+
+```python {title="fallback_model_per_settings.py"}
+from pydantic_ai import Agent
+from pydantic_ai.models.anthropic import AnthropicModel
+from pydantic_ai.models.fallback import FallbackModel
+from pydantic_ai.models.openai import OpenAIModel
+from pydantic_ai.settings import ModelSettings
+
+# Configure each model with provider-specific optimal settings
+openai_model = OpenAIModel(
+    'gpt-4o',
+    settings=ModelSettings(temperature=0.7, max_tokens=1000)  # Higher creativity for OpenAI
+)
+anthropic_model = AnthropicModel(
+    'claude-3-5-sonnet-latest',
+    settings=ModelSettings(temperature=0.2, max_tokens=1000)  # Lower temperature for consistency
+)
+
+fallback_model = FallbackModel(openai_model, anthropic_model)
+agent = Agent(fallback_model)
+
+result = agent.run_sync('Write a creative story about space exploration')
+print(result.data)
+```
+
+In this example, if the OpenAI model fails, the agent will automatically fall back to the Anthropic model with its own configured settings. The `FallbackModel` itself doesn't have settings - it uses the individual settings of whichever model successfully handles the request.
+
 In this next example, we demonstrate the exception-handling capabilities of `FallbackModel`.
 If all models fail, a [`FallbackExceptionGroup`][pydantic_ai.exceptions.FallbackExceptionGroup] is raised, which
 contains all the exceptions encountered during the `run` execution.
