can still make and receive calls.
You cannot listen from the base; the

Tone Dialing Switch Over
If your phone is set to pulse dialing, you can switch
to tone dialing after the call connects. This feature is
useful when you need tone dialing to use automated
menu systems, such as telephone bank tellers,
telephone prescription refi lls, customer support
menus, etc.
Make your call normally.
Once your call connects, press */TONE/< on the
handset or */TONE on the base.
Any digits you enter from then on will be sent
with tone dialing. When this particular call ends,
the phone automatically returns to pulse dialing.
See Changing the Dial Mode on page 32 for
instructions on setting your phone for pulse or tone
dialing.
