Thanks everyone for answers, but I meant something different.

 

Step 1. There is only one value selected in Chiclet Slicer and everything looks good. Simple Card shows value for selected Chiclet.

 

Step 2. But in Chiclet Slicer I can canceled my choise, thus none of the options were selected. And in this situation Simple Card summarizes all values. I don't want this. I need Simple Card shows only one value.

 

So, how to avoid situation where User can deselect and none of the values ​​were selected?
