Auto engine shutdown stop

I ordered my 2017 F450 with a 5 min engine shutdown. There are times when I don't want it to shutdown, such as during air compressor usage or if leaving the dog in the vehicle with air conditioning running. Is there a way to not have it shut down? This is a problem I did not consider when I optioned the truck.

You can disable it via a menu, but it re-enables every time you start the truck.

OK, have not spotted that menu, and I've been through them a lot. Any clue as to where to find it?
