Default Installing a entry door threshold

I bought a threshold for my entry door. For a profile of the
threshold, see: http://images.orgill.com/200x200/0039560.jpg

The left side of the profile has a GRADUAL slope
The right side has a STEEPER slope.

Which slope should the door contact?

The longer one goes outside. To better channel rain water away from the
door.
