It's not easy but it's the right way (as per Carbotech).

That is mostly right. You need to drive for about 10-15 minutes without touching the brake if you can, to cool them down before parking. Otherwise you will stick a bunch of pad material to the rotor.
Personally my favorite way to bed XP10's is to throw them away and buy a real pad.
