Remove the lid via 2 screws at back and slide lid backwards. Remove timer dial by gripping firmly and pulling forward, be careful not to damage it, some have a removable centre if this comes loose use 2 thin knifes the prise the dial forward and off, this will expose 2 small screws that hold the right hand side of the front facia in place. There are 3 plastic lock lugs that need to be "popped" forward to release the panel....a small electrical screwdriver placed in hole a sharp bang works best. This will give access once the facia is removed to 3 screws holding front panel at the top. Lay machine on its back and remove the bottom kick panel about 4 screws along the length and 2 on the base of machine, this will expose pulley and motor assembly. Carefully lift front panel up to free from front bearing,note be careful not to move too much as wires etc are still attached to door and loom inside, you should be able to feed the new belt through the the gap now created. Align the belt with the marks left on drum and manipulate the belt around the pulleys. Manually turn drum slowly ensuring belt seats itself evenly around drum and pulleys. Once happy the belt will stay on after 2 manual rotations ensure front is lined back up with front bearing and if fitted the vent tube from front to back. Once all snugly back in place refit all screws locking front panel in place. Refit top facia, line plastic lugs up and give a sharp bang with palm of hand until they locate fully. Replace timer screws and dial.
It can be a fiddly job so take your time and watch for metal cuts !
