You need to locate the tensioner pulley which keeps pressure on the belt. Use a wrench (of correct size) and pull on the nut on the pulley to relieve tension on the belt. You should them be able to slide the belt off. You do the same thing to put the new belt back on. Make sure it is routed correctly. There will be a routing diagram for the belt on top of the radiator support. The nut for the pulley threads on in reverse so you won't loosen it when pulling on it.
