Default New ceramic pads SQUEEKING !

I was told that ceramic pads would cut down brake dust and NOT SQUEEK.
It's embarrassing. Never had squeek before and only put the ceramic pads on because I wanted to get rid of the brake dust.
Brake dust is better but I can't stand the *&#$ing SQUEEKING I was told I would not have.
How do I get rid of the squeekiing???
They are GM ceramic pads. I hate them.

Bed the brakes in per: http://www.zeckhausen.com/bedding_in_brakes.htm. That should cure your squealing problems.
