you can not tell if the belt has been changed or not if not 100% get it changed its a fraction of the cost compared to a full cylneder head rebiled.
check recommended mileage, DO NOT EXCEED
if you have the service history check for the dealers stamp if not check onto of the cambelt housing to see if there is a sticker with mileage on which indicates when it was changed if none of the above take off the cambelt casing and check the condition of the cambelt and if it doesnt look new have it done for peace of mind.
60,000 miles or 5 years if in doubt get mechanic to check for wear. Advisable to have water pump and tensioners changed at same time as same labour involved.
Check with the specific dealership where you purchased your car from in regards to the timing belt to get a quote. Or, consult a local mechanic such as those with ASE certified technicians.
How do you check the Transmission Fluid on Renault Megan 2000' , 1600cc
To replace the timing belt on a Renault Megane Scenic, first disconnect the battery and remove any necessary components obstructing access, such as the engine covers and accessory belts. Align the timing marks on the crankshaft and camshaft to ensure proper timing, then remove the old timing belt while taking care to note the routing. Install the new timing belt, ensuring it is taut and properly aligned with the timing marks, and then reassemble all components in reverse order. Finally, check the tension of the belt and reconnect the battery before starting the engine to verify the installation.

Double check all connectors. Check for engine trouble codes. Double check that the timing belt/chain is correct.
Check the owners manual on your car. Most of the manual will give you a range that is very close. Get it changed if it is close because when it goes it can cause major problems.

A timing chain usually lasts 200,000 miles, a timing belt usually needs changed by 100,000 miles.
If it started flashing after the water pump, it is possible that the timing belt/chain is installed improperly.

I believe that engine actually has a timing chain, which does not require replacement. If it is actually a timing belt, it should be changed every 60k-90k miles regardless of wear.
