Question Bedding in EBC Red Ceramic Pads

Is anybody aware of any recommended procedures for these pads? I've seen recommended procedures for bedding other pads but not EBC pads.

If you've been using these pads did you follow any guidelines to bed them in?

I went through this when I fitted them to mine... I had heard all sorts of different methods... drive to 50 mph brake hard but release before hitting 10mph, repeat this 3 times reducing the top speed by 10 mph each time and other (wasn't exactly that but something similar).
In the end,
I just took it easy, no "fast road" driving and no unnecessary emergency stops for about 250 miles. Same as 7 foot really LOL

Oh, when they were bedded in, they're absolutley spot on... never got fade once. The hotter they get the better they get. And they werent anywhere near as bad as people made out about them when they're cold.
