Leave alone for 2 weeks and then start checking gravity :

Also have a good read of the howto section, especially how not to ruin your brew/Get the best out of kit

Leave the lid on, don't touch it for 2 weeks! The more you open/mess with it, the more you risk compromising it!

Just had to smile here - having brewed beer over many years on and off I still find it exciting to have a quick peek to see how it's going. I agree it increases the risk of contamination but I have been lucky so far.
