Remove the tools [1], [2], [3] and [4].
Rotate the engine by 4 turnsin the normal direction (do not turn backwards). Peg the flywheel [2].
Loosen the six screws (5), while ensuring there is still a slight amount of friction with the pulley.
Peg the camshaft hubs using pegs [3]and [4].
WARNING: In certain cases, it may be necessary to slightly turn the camshaft using the hub fixing screw.
Fit the tool [1].
Loosen the tensioner roller screw (2).
Rotate the roller (2)(using tool [5])in an anticlockwise direction to obtain:37 SEEM units.

Overtensioning the belt.Position «a»Tensioner roller in slackened position.
Position «b»Tensioner roller in normal position.
Position «c» Tensioner roller in overtensioned position.
Turn the tensioner roller (8)using an allen spanner at «e».
Position the index «d»in position «c», tension the belt to the maximum indicated.
Tighten the fixing nut of the tensioner roller to 2,1 ± 0,2 m.daN.
Rotate the crankshaft by 4 turns(normal direction of rotation).IMPERATIVE: Never turn the crankshaft backwards.Make sure the timing setting is correct by refitting the pegs [1], [3]and [4].
Remove the pegs [1], [3]and [4].
Adjusting the tension of the belt.Slacken the nut, holding the position of the tensioner roller, by means of an allen spanner at
«e».
Then bring the index «d»to its adjustment position «b».WARNING:The index «d»should not go past the notch «b».If it should do so, repeat the operation to
tension the timing belt.Maintain the tensioner roller
(8)in this position, using the allen spanner.
Tighten the fixing nut of the tensioner roller to 2,1 ± 0,2 m.daN.IMPERATIVE:The tensioner roller should not turn during the tightening of its fixing.If it should do
so, repeat the operation to tension the timing belt.

Tensioning the timing belt.
Turn the tensioner roller (8)in the direction of the arrow «c», by means of a hexagonal spanner at «d».
Positionner l’index «a»en position «f».
IMPERATVE: The index «a» should go past the slot «g» by an angular value of 10°.
If it does not, replace the tensioner roller or the timing belt and tensioner roller assembly.
Next bring the index «a»to its adjusting position «g», by turning the tensioner roller in the direction of the arrow «e».
WARNING:the index «a»should not pass the slot «g».
Otherwise, repeat the operation to tension the timing belt.
IMPERATIVE: The tensioner roller should not turn during the tightening of its fixing.
If it does, repeat the operation to tension the timing belt.
Tighten the screw (9)of the tensioner roller (8)to 2,1 ± 0,2 m.daN.
IMPERATIVE: The hexagonal tensioner roller drive should be approx. 15° below the level of the cylinder head
gasket «h».
If it is not, replace the tensioner roller or the timing belt and tensioner roller assembly.

Checks (continued).
Refit the screw (8).
Rotate the crankshaft six times
(clockwise).
IMPERATIVE: Never rotate the engine backwards.
Peg:
The camshaft, using tool
[2](oil the pegs).

WARNING:The magnetic track should show no signs of damage and should not be
approached by any source of magnetism.
Peg the crankshaft at
«b», using tool [3].
IMPERATIVE:Should it be impossible to peg the camshaft, check that the
offset between the hole in the camshaft pinion and the pegging hole is not
greater than 1 mm.Otherwise repeat the operation to position the timing belt
(see corresponding
operation)
