Breaking in new rotors and pads

Topic starter

I am changing the rotors and brake pads on my 2017 Honda Accord with 37,000 miles on it. I’m using Centric Premium fully coated front and rear rotors with Akebono brake pads. Is there a special break in procedure once everything is installed or do I simply drive normally and avoid hard stops for a while? 

I had installed power stops on my truck a while back and I know they have a break in procedure where you do 5 hard stops from 40mph and then 5 moderate ones from 35 mph then let brakes cool.

Here you are. Right on the Centric website.
