Default How to break in vehicle?

Any tips on how to break in my new CX-5? Only had 27 clicks on pick up and about 90 as of right now. I know I should drive it smoothly for the first bit but for how long? My old Mazda 3 was under 4000 RPMS for the first 3-4000 clicks.

Love my new ride.

The manual suggests nothing special about break in. No mileage amounts like many cars. Just the usual, such as avoid sudden acceleration or stops, drive smoothly-that sort of thing.
Most cars I have owned have been far more specific mainly because of the manufacturing methods. I take it's lack of more specifics to be a good sign.
