Just keep the humdifying element full of distilled water and put your cigars in. The more it is filled, the better is will stay constant. I am skeptical of most hydrometer readings unless you have something really fancy.

I find many on these forums are overly concerned with hydrometer readings (unless too humid).

It could take weeks for before the humidor really sets in. I do not recommend wiping down the inside with water, but too late for that one...
