On Erev Yom Tov, Minha begins on page 222. On Shabbat Ḥol HaMo’ed, or when Yom Tov falls on Shabbat, Ma’ariv begins with Psalm 29 on page 376.
When Yom Tov falls on a weekday, Ma’ariv begins with Barekhu on page 396; when Ḥol HaMo’ed falls on a weekday, Ma’ariv begins with “He is compassionate” on page 206.
The following Amida is said in Shaharit, Minha and Ma’ariv on Yom Tov Pesaḥ, Shavuot, Sukkot, Shemini Atzeret and Simḥat Torah, but not on Ḥol HaMo’ed.

Take three steps forward and at the points indicated by ▼, bend the knees at the first word, bow at the second, and stand straight before saying God’s name.
