Cheap scales do that,

some better scales of an autocalibration, mode, RTM
read the manual, google for it using its real name and model #
then read that see if it has that feature,
a 6% error, if the manual tells you scale is 5% accuracy that be normal. no scale told of 10,000 models sold world wide.

Make sure the scale is zeroed before using, then weigh an item 3 times and take the average weight.

My scales show 3.5 kg lighter than actual reading. What can I do?

check at the back of the scales for an adjustment screw or knob
to make the adjustment you will need items of known fixed mass over say 2 lb to 40 lb
you can do this by accurately measuring 1/2 gallon , 1 gallon 2 gallon 4ga;;ons of water as it is 10 lb to the gallon
there may be a pdf version download on the net if you go google and type in--- user manual for (make and model ) scales

My WW78 scale keeps giving an ERR message when I stand on it.

Usually I change the weight by weighing one foot and then weighing again with both. And then I keep repeating that until my results are consistent. Then that result seems to be accurate

I have two Weight Watcher scales, model WW11D. They weigh 4 lbs differently. One is 2 lbs heavy and the other is 2 lbs light relative to the weight registered at a Weight Watchers meeting. Is there a...

You say, that: "I have two Weight Watcher scales, model WW11D."

Can I have three guesses where you purchased them???
Do they come with any sort of warranty?

Their weight is inaccurate as compared to the official scales when you weigh yourself at the Weight Watchers meeting.

Are the people running the Weight Watchers meetings absolutely and totally unable to provide an answer regarding these scales?

My scale adds anywhere from 5 lbs to 35 lbs to my family's weight. I just had my daughter weighed yesterday and this scale added 5 lbs and when my husband or I get on it, it adds anywhere from 30 to 35 lbs...

there should be a dial on the sides to zero it out. if it doesnt, then it has something to do on the actual scale. does it have a menu or settings option? you should be able to zero it out.
