To time the engine of the Peugeot 207, make marks on the timing belt and corresponding marks on the camshaft pulleys. Once the marks are made, the timing belt can be removed for replacement with a new one. The marks on the belt must also be transferred to the new replacement belt to ensure alignment with the camshaft pulleys.

After correctly positioning the new belt, manually rotate the crankshaft to verify everything functions correctly before starting the engine.
