T7i - No settings in viewfinder??

As excited as I was to get this camera, it's turning out to feel like I'm decoding a Chinese puzzle box.

I must have spent 20 minutes trying to figure out how to get the happy-happy-joy-joy help infographics off the display so I could take a picture. (I know. 1st world problems)

The hill I'm climbing today is that I can't figure out how to display the camera settings through the viewfinder (eyepiece).

I've tried with the LCD facing out, facing in (closed), pressing buttons, turning knobs, animal sacrifices. No success.

Can someone much smarter than me (i.e., everyone) please explain how I can display the settings via the viewfinder?

Thank you, for your help.
