Default Kenwood Doubledin

So, I have a Kenwood Double din in my C5, and I am having A LOT of difficulty trying to get the equalizer to work to how it sounds good to me. I am used to Bass, Treble, Mid, etc. There are all these different rows now. So.... Can anyone break it down for me or have a cheat sheet?

I was struggling with this years ago also. I ended up using pink noise and an RTA scale app to set my EQ properly. I used a signal generator app to play pink noise through the stereo while using my phone mic and an RTA app to listen to the pink noise and try to create the EQ curve that I wanted. In the end I ended up getting the sound curve to where I wanted it with an eq setting that improved sound quality and was pleasing to the ear, but when you look at my EQ settings in the head unit, they are all over the place as the frequencies from the factory are not all created. If I set my EQ levels flat across the board, it was obvious with the pink noise and RTA scale, that some frequencies were coming through much stronger than the should be and some frequencies not enough.
