Well ric, first welcome to the forums. I think most here would suggest not using the round disc humidifier at all and visiting a local shop where you can buy boveda packs, gel or beads in order to keep the humidity stable in the humidifier. You should probaly know that you will also need to season the humidor first. Boveda makes a pack for just that to make it simple. Again welcome.

+1 on this,, if you need to use the puck in the interim, be sure you use distilled water....very important,,oh and it adheres to the inside of the lid
Welcometo the forums, there is a wealth of info here but yeah get rid of that puck as soon as you can eventually it will start growing mold I replaced mine with a puck of beads and it works great. But I went cheap and didn't get heartfelt I think they may hold moisture better. And absolutely season the humi before putting your sticks in it or it'll suck all the moisture out of them.
Wipe the interior down with a damp rag of distilled water. Do not puddle it. Then put you humidification device in and or a small bowl of distilled water. Let the humidor set until your RH hits 75 or 80 percent for several days. Once the humi is stable then you can add cigars.
