The codex contains the text of the four Gospels, on 277 parchment leaves (size 16 cm by 11 cm), with only one lacuna (Matthew 26:27-39). The text is written in one column per page, 18 lines per page, in very small letters.

It contains lists of the κεφαλαια before each of the Gospels, numbers of the κεφαλαια (chapters) at the margin, the τιτλοι (titles) at the top of the pages, the Ammonian Sections, references to the Eusebian Canons, and lectionary markings.
