To change the fan belt on a Ford Mondeo Zetec, first, ensure the engine is off and cool. Release the tension on the belt by loosening the tensioner pulley using a wrench or socket. Remove the old belt from the pulleys, then route the new belt according to the belt diagram, which is usually found on a sticker in the engine bay. Finally, re-tighten the tensioner and check the belt for proper alignment before starting the engine.

No,the zetech is a non interference engine,so if your timing belt breaks or shreds your pistons&valves will be fine.
the ZETEC engine used in the 1999 ZX2 is a non-interference engine. This means that the pistons will not contact the valves when the timing belt breaks. Because of this, the valves will not be bad if the timing belt breaks
