Question about Tanita Rd-953
Hello, I got the scale new 1 week ago, but I am very unsure about the measurement results. I am not an extremely slim person by any means, however the scale tells me I have below average fat and I am body type 8. Unfortunately, this is not possible at all, so I assume there is a mistake. Can I change the settings in the scale?

As Muus84 says: Set up the country code, because the earth's gravitational force is not the same everywhere on earth. About the body type: (physical assessment) This is a result of the values that the scales provide. I have never paid much attention to that either. But as far as fat measurement is concerned.... Important: always measure at the same time of day, under the same conditions (i.e. in the morning after going to the toilet, before breakfast, for example) and make sure that your feet and the surface of the scales are dry and clean.
The values are measured with small resistance currents. And the conductivity of the electrodes reacts sensitively to moisture, dust and dirt.
As far as I know, nothing can be adjusted.
Otherwise, these scales measure quite accurately. I myself do a lot of sport and compare the values from home with those from the gym (professional analysis scales) and they match with a deviation of 1-3%.
I hope I have helped you.

Hi Lina, are you using the scale with the smartphone app? Otherwise it is important that you have programmed the correct zone of the country and not the athlete measurement.
