Default New DMF + Clutch 'bedding in'

Hello. After spending a fortune on two wheel bearings, a new crankshaft pulley, a new p/s pump a full service & a brand new DMF/Clutch kit on my Mondeo it's finally running excellent now. Anyhow I was just wondering do you need to 'bed in' a clutch/flywheel? I haven't put my foot down yet as the garage said leave it 1,000 miles before fully opening it up.

Should be fine from the word go. Just had mine done on my mondeo and it gets a hammering every day. I've had no issues what so ever.

Just drive it normally, it will be fine.

Unless it's a cheap crap replacement it should have ample load capacity to work with even silly abuse when new.
