Default How do you replace accessory belt?

My accessory belt was spontaniously off this morning when I turned my car on. Dont know why, but I finally got it back on. It was a pain, and ive heard that all you need to do is turn one bolt. I was wondering exactly where this bolt is, and what size it is, in case this happens again. THANKS!

the tensioner on the passenger side of the engine compartment has a bolt on the face of the pulley. take a wrench and put it over that bolt and then move the tensioner so you can slip the belt back over the top of the pulley.

if you dont have a wrench, it should be a 15mm socket.
