New disc brakes squeal

Hello, I am new to the forum and looking for a little assistance.

I just purchased a Trek FC Wahoo LX and have TekTro disc breaks on it. After the first day of riding it, the breaks now 'squeal' (it is more of a shriek) and am not sure what to do.

I went to the dealer that sold it to me and they said to put dirt and water on the pad itself to lessen the break howl. Is there anything else that I need to know about breaking in new disc brakes?

Thanks in advance,
JD
