This is the belt routing for the 3.6. You put the belt on each pulley, then move the tensioner and put the belt onto the idler.

The belt only fits on there correctly one way. That is the belt routing in the picture. If you mean it doesn't show the belt installed, that's typical service info. Try the attached, night make it easier.
