The codex contains a complete text of the four Gospels, on 303 parchment leaves (size 9.7 cm by 6.8 cm).[2] It is written in one column per page, 22 lines per page, in very small letters.[3]

The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, and the τιτλοι (titles of chapters) at the top of the pages. There is also a division according to the Ammonian Sections (in Mark 234, last numbered section in 16:10), references to the Eusebian Canons are absent.[3]

It contains lectionary markings at the margin for liturgical reading, and synaxaria.[3][4]

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.[5] According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents textual family Π^b in Luke 1, Luke 10, and Luke 20.[6]
