You want the surface in the bottom pic pushed down firmly into the silicone with no air bubbles.

Pretend it is an iron and you are ironing clothes. The sole or bottom of the iron should be pointing down as if it were ironing. Mine sits in a water well, but others sit theirs in Sikaflex or similar.
