It is the  responsibility of the user to dispose of the equipment using a designated collection point or service for separate recycling of waste electrical and electronic  equipment (WEEE) and batteries according to local laws.
Proper collection and recycling of your equipment helps ensure electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) waste is recycled in a manner that conserves valuable  materials and protects human health and the environment, improper handling, accidental breakage, damage, and/or improper recycling at the end of its life may  be harmful for health and environment.

Reduction of hazardous substances
This device and its electrical accessories are compliant with local applicable rules on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and  electronic equipment, such as EU REACH, RoHS and Batteries (where included) regulations. For declarations of conformity about REACH and RoHS, please  visit our web site https://consumer.huawei.com/certification.
EU regulatory conformance
RF exposure requirements
Important safety information regarding radio frequency (RF) radiation exposure:
RF exposure guidelines require that the device be used at a minimum of 0.5 cm from the human body. Failure to observe this guideline may result in RF exposure exceeding limits.
Certification information (SAR)
This device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves. Your device is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. As recommended by international guidelines,  the device is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves. These guidelines were developed by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing  Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), an independent scientific organization, and include safety measures designed to ensure the safety of all users, regardless of age  and health. The Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the amount of radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when using a device.  The SAR value is determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR level during operation can be well below the value.  This is because the device is designed to use the minimum power required to reach the network. The SAR limit adopted by Europe is 2.0 W/kg averaged over 10  grams of tissue, and the highest SAR value for this device complies with this limit.

When using a foreign sim card, is your wlan advanced settings locked out? i am unable to modify wifi channel making hotspot useless. any solutions?

Normally, it is set to auto channel selection and the 2.4 GHz band, however, both are adjustable. If you are worried that the SIM card is locking the settings, you can remove the SIM card and power it back up. It will work without a SIM card installed, but it will complain at you – you can then configure the settings however you want, power it back down, and re-install the SIM card. I was able to configure the WiFi settings without a SIM card installed (but mine also allowed me to configure the settings with two different foreign SIMs in it).

Depends on the location. Even phones do not have 4G everywhere. Also if multiple devices connect to it, then speeds will drop accordingly.
