The belt is tightened automatically by the belt tensioner. If the belt is too loose, it's time to replace it.

Is it safe to drive my 2000 Mercury Mystique with a bad timing belt?
You can adjust the belt tensioner by loosening the tensioner bolt. When the tensioner bolt is loose the tensioner pulley can move back and fourth.
fans are driven electronically no belt. The serpentine belt is taken off by taking the tension off at the tensioner and replacing by following the pattern on your strut tower.
To adjust a belt properly, first locate the belt tensioner and use a wrench to loosen it. Then, adjust the belt tension by moving the tensioner until the belt has the right amount of tension. Finally, tighten the tensioner back up and make sure the belt is aligned properly on the pulleys.
The belt tensioner is self-adjusting.
You cannot adjust the tension on this, it has a spring inside of it. If it is weak, it must be replaced.
There is no way to adjust the belt tensioner, if it's not keeping enough tension on the belt the complete tensioner itself will need replaced.
There is no adjustment on the spring / Tensioner. You either have the wrong belt are the tensioner itself is bad. Replace tensioner are belt.

Have you checked the Contour.org web page and forums? Lots of great information out there for us Contour and Mystique owners. Need to jack up car on right side. Lay down under the car and look up at the belt. use a wrench or socket on the tensioner to get slack in the belt. Pull the belt off when you get enough slack. Get your new bel on all the pulleys and pull the tensioner back up and slip the new belt on.
