Your fan is driven by electricity not a belt.

There is a seqence to use to ease the tensioner on the auxilary belt, perhaps someone will help with a better answer or get the Haynes manual to help you.

Pop to the library & borrow the Haynes manual, because the belts & replacement vary depending on wether you`ve got the 1,2 SOHC or DOHC engine.
