If you have CCB, definitely take it easy on them until 1200mi.
Can you further explain taking it easy on the CCB? I have not heard this before.
Each disc has its own unique surface grain pattern and the pads need to be seated (bedded in) to provide consistent and uniform contact. With MCCB it's the opposite of iron. Gentle for the first 600mi and try to avoid ABS activation and from 600-1200mi, gradually increase braking force. This will significantly reduce the chances of excessive squeal and abnormal wear/operation.
