The invention provides a sample analyzer by which a position of any error status in the sample analyzer can be easily found by a user to allow the user to carry out an error recovery operation in an accurate and prompt manner. The sample analyzer 1 comprises a sensor for detecting a status of a measurement unit 2 including an error status; a display section 400b; and a controller 400a for controlling the display section 400b so as to display recovery information for recovering the measurement unit 2 from the error status and an error-occurring place image regarding a place where an error has occurred, when the sensor detects the error status of the measurement unit 2.
