The alternator belt is loose and slips immediately after starting, when the alternator is working the hardest. Alos, the power steering belt is loose, and it sqeals when the power steering pump has to work hardenst in sharp turns.

Adjustment is easy, but you'll need to loosen the adjusment locking nut first (13mm), and then turn the belt tensioning screw (10mm) to tighten the belts. When you are done tighten the adjustment locking nut.
