Is there any reason you need an amp? At home I'd just play acoustically. If you are playing out, then there will normally be a PA to plug into.
Use the clean channel and just set the tone control wherever it sounds best, probably full up or nearly so.
Or - if you can set the gain low enough to not distort - use the lead channel with the gain very low and the volume high, the bass about halfway, middle at zero, treble up full, and ISF to wherever it sounds best.
Or possibly, if the guitar has enough range on the onboard EQ and volume control, try plugging into the FX return, which will bypass the amp's preamp. (Be careful of feedback, and start with the guitar's volume off.)

I usually use the amp with my Strat (I love the sound it makes - not sure my neighbours do) and normally play the acoustic without the amp, but was curious what it would sound like.
You could try a more "hi fi" speaker on the Five? Feedback as IC says is likely to be a problem.

In answer to the OP question, my recommended settings are:
Mains switch - off
Standby switch - off
Input jack - no connection.
The Taylor guitar deserves full range sound reinforcement. This probably means P.A. or specialist acoustic instrument amplification - neither of which will be inexpensive.
