The 5th Amendment of the U.S. Bill of Rights, which protects U.S. citizens against self-incrimination, is the basis for our Miranda Rights. However, in order for Miranda to apply, two elements must be present: 1. the suspect is in police custody, AND
2. the suspect is being asked questions by police that are likely to invoke incriminating statements.
Both CUSTODY and INTERROGATION must be present before Miranda applies. A police officer does not have to advise a suspect of their Miranda rights when either of these elements are absent.

No Miranda Warning is required if a person is not in police custody. If a person hasn't been arrested the police may question that person and use the answers later if that person is later charged with a crime. There are situations when police have questioned someone while still on the street investigating a crime and the person blurts out a confession.
However, a good defense counsel will work diligently to try to suppress any confession made or information provided before the suspect was "Mirandized".

What is the definition of Miranda rights?
Miranda rights are the rights that all Americans have that are relevant to suspects in investigations. They must be read as a suspect is taken into custody. They include the right to remain silent, and the right to an attorney.Note that there is no such thing as "Miranda Rights". The actual thing in question is termed a "Miranda Warning", since what is happening is a notification of your (already existing) Constitution Rights (under the 5th and 6th Amendments). What the Miranda v Arizona case defined was that police are required to inform you of your 5th and 6th Amendment Rights during questioning after arrest (this required notification is what often confusingly called "Miranda Rights").
