Pivot Table Slicers. Can I ensure one specific item is always selected?

I'm using Excel 2013.

As in the title, I have a slicer (connected to a pivot table and pivot chart) and I'd like to make sure one specific item in my slicer is always selected whilst allowing multiple others to be selected (and deselected) at will.

Hypothetically, lets say the items in my slicer are "conforming", "scratched", "dented", "broken", "torn" (etc etc there are many more).

I have my slicer connected to a pivot chart, and my chart only makes sense if the item called "conforming" is always selected, along with one (or more) of the defects.

Is there any way to force the slicer to always have "conforming" selected, whilst allowing the user to select an additional item (or more)?

Thanks in advance!

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
