Take the outside belt off first, usually Alt. by loosening tension bolt, then AC by loosening tension bolt, then waterpump belt then power steering belt.

You would remove farthest belt outside, working your way to innermost belt.

When removing belts, disconnect negative battery cable, there are connections on the alt. that are hot all the time and if it comes in contact with the body or any ground you could damage the at. or electrical system.
