Dinamight,
Email me if you want on properly setting up the bike too. Makes a big difference.
IMHO, if your knee pain is on the backside .. Give it a little while to be on the upside ( mend ) and then hit the stairs. Not gonna make it worse. Stretch out the backs of your legs first and make sure you are super hydrated. If its on the side or front, you gotta wait or go SUPER slow.
ONLY 'spin' on the bike .. resist the urge to 'push'. Not sure what kine pedals you have but try to turn the cranks over like you are wiping your feet on a door mat. Don't push down or pull up ... pull back once over the top. Your seat must be adjusted right to maximize this.
aloha,
pog
