Default How to select numeric 'series axis' in a surface chart?

Hello,

When I make a 3D surface chart in Excel, the 'series axis' is automatically
displayed as S1, S2, etc. How can I have that axis display numbers?

My table is in the following form:
5 10 15
2 45 48 62
4 35 34 60
6 12 13 58

When I make my surface chart, I select all the cells for the data range
(including the top left blank one) and select series in columns but Excel
does not change the series in numbers automatically (Series1, Series2 and
Series3 are displayed instead of 5, 10 and 15). For example Series2 includes
5, 45, 35, 12 (but it should include 45, 35, 12) and the Name cell is empty.

How can I make Excel to display numbers instead of series automatically
(without having to select all the cells manually)?

Thank you for your help,
