Timing Belt Replacement

My '97 SVX has almost 29 000 miles on it and I have had it coming up on 3 years. I may be able to find out if the timing belt has been replaced by the previous owner since I know the dealer where he serviced it since I have more major services done by this same dealer. This dealer is pretty good at doing what is necessary so I assume it has been done at some point as they always kept my previous SVX on schedule.

I believe the maintenance schedule says something like replace it every 5 years but at this point I don't actually know if it has ever been changed. Should I be worried about this? If I find out it hasn't been changed in the last 5 years should I get it done ASAP or should I be okay for a while?
