The belt has a tensioner that keeps the proper amount of tension on the belt. It will be an aluminum piece that has a black pulley on it. Look close to the pulley and there may be a square hole that is used to pull the tensioner back. It is point B in the picture.

Put a ratchet in it and push in the direction of the broken arrow. Be sure to disconnect the battery negative cable first. Then remove the belt, remove the connections and unbolt the alternator.
