When you are on WiFi your data is disconnected.

Go to data usage to check what is using the data.

If your wifi signal drops off, it may start to use 4g.

Disable your dropbox back up, google acct back up, photo back up etc etc.

Basically when you have 1st gotten your android phone, after you have set up your google account, the phone will sync all the stuffs into your phone via which data/wifi connection you are on.

Thus if you are using data to setup your google account, all stuffs will be downloaded into your phone using data.

I believe that this high data usage will happen for the 1st time only.
