The active leveling is sensitive to electronic noise but leveling will also fail if there any non-melted filament on the tip of the nozzle. So the printer heats both cores and the bed every time but then cuts power to all 3 while leveling is happening.
You can definitely disable the active leveling. I did it on my S5 for a month. The experience was pretty good. The feature is not build into the screen but here is a tool to do it (which is what I used on my S5 - worked well). Note that the first time you do manual leveling you should probably reboot right after as I forget now but it did something strange on the first print after the first leveling after switching to manual.
