There is more than just saying the standard statement. You have to ensure that the person understood it, and is capable of understanding it. What is NOT in the statement is that you can stop the questioning by saying two things. Either, I want to speak to my attorney, or by saying that you want to invoke your right to remain silent. What is really insidious about this ruling is that you can apparently "surrender" that right by answering a question like "do you want a glass of water".
