It should be self adjusting, if it is slipping it could mean you need a new belt or a new belt tensioner.

How do you change a serpentine belt on a 1990 GMC suburban?

My suburban has a automatic tensioner therefore I need to do is take the tension off with a long wrench and slide the belt from underneath it and replace it with the new one. The tensioner is right by the water pump. If not then you will need to loosen the alternator bolt and drop the alternator to loosen the tension. Trust me manuals can be your best friend!!
