    Take a towel and moisten it (moist, not wet)
    Wrap youre hygrometer in it and let it sit for around 10 minutes.
    When you take it out, the humidity should be close to 100%, if not, some may be adjustable, otherwise you have to see how much it deviates.

    Another problem might be the placement.
    Did you try measuring in different spots already?
