First try Jean's suggestion! In general, it's better to use \voiceOne, 
\voiceTwo, .... (which is implicitly done by the <<{...} \\ {...}>> 
construct) which sets the direction not only on stems but also on lots 
of other details, which mostly gives the desired result according to 
standard typesetting practice. Only use \stemDown if you have special 
reasons to only set the stem directions, nothing else. See 
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.24/Documentation/learning/explicitly-instantiating-voices 
for more explanations.
