Default How to cnange an alternator belt in a 1990 model 80 4cyl

Ok, so, I'm not what you'd call a "car guy". I'm good with the theory of cars, and very mechanical, but little experience with cars. I can change the oil, and check the fluids, change a tire, basic stuff. My alternator/waterpump belt broke, though. Luckily it happened a few hundred yards from home so I was easily able to get it parked fine. However, I see there are two other belts on the same pulley area. The Alternator belt is the innermost belt so I have to take the other two off to get to put on the new alternator belt.

So, in a 1990 Audio model 80 with a 4 cylinder engine, I see how to loosen the alternator, but I have no clue how to get the other two belts off. I have been told they're for the AC and the power steering, but I don't know which one is which. Can anyone give me some pointers? I'd much appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
