settle down with something
relax with something enjoyable
To settle down with something means to sit comfortably and relax while enjoying it.
Hear it in real life
What are you doing tonight?
I'm going to settle down with some tea and a film.
I like to settle down with a book after dinner.

Not: I settled down by a film.
Say: I settled down with a film.
Use "with" to introduce the thing you relax and enjoy.
