"Drive 100 miles normally keeping your distance from cars upfront"
"After that the brakes are bed in"

The rules I follow (not saying it's correct) is take it relatively easy the first couple of hundred miles and leave the car in gear if parking on an incline during this period.

Ignore the ebc one as they come coated with a bedding in compound/coating on the pads and need bedding in different. I have asked my suppliers brembo and ferodo and have not got a definite answer on best way so I advise to drive normal and be aware stopping distances may be greater until bedded on which is around 200 miles
