How to change settings for maintenance

Hello,
I have recently reached my goal weight and I'm not sure how to go about changing the settings so I know how many calories to eat to not lose any more weight. I weigh 130lbs. Female, 5'3". 49 yo. Exercise at least 40 minutes 4 times a week. When I put these settings in, it says I should be eating about 1740 calories I think that's way too much. If any suggestions, please be specific on how to redo the settings. I'm not the greatest at getting around on this website (even though I've used it for over a year) Thanks for any suggestions.
