Um for future reference the search feature is great (there was a post on this a couple of days ago), but to answer your question just drive normally for the first 50-100 miles while advoiding heavy braking.

i did the "get 'er up to 30 and slam on the brakes" method to break them in...haven't had an issue with warped rotors or anything like that yet...
