Is that part of the break in period?

Thanks.

Bedding New Brake Pads

1. Make sure all parts are installed correctly
2. Go for a drive on a road without other motorists
3. Accelerate to 60, brake with moderate pressure down to 20 mph
4. Repeat step 3 approximately four times
5. Drive home without further hard stops
6. Allow brakes to cool overnight WITHOUT using the e-brake
