1977 z1000 piston rings

Hi I’ve had to buy new piston rings as my bike had sat for a while+ old ones seized. Unfortunately I didn’t pay attention to the old ones when I removed them! My question is on the second compression ring should the notch face up or down? No markings on rings(genuine Kawasaki rings)

According to the factory service manual which you can download below the notch faces up.
