The codex contains a complete text of the four Gospels on 329 parchment leaves (17.7 cm by 13 cm). The text is written in one column per page, in 22 lines per page.[2]

The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, and their τιτλοι (titles) at the top of the pages. There is also a division according to the Ammonian Sections (in Mark 241 Sections, the last in 16:9), with references to the Eusebian Canons (written below Ammonian Section numbers).[3]

It contains the Epistula ad Carpianum, Eusebian Canon tables, Prolegomena, tables of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each Gospel, Synaxarion, Menologion, and numbers of στιχοι.[3]

John 1:1-14 was supplied by a later hand.[3]
